YELLIES! – The New Craze Toy From Hasbro

amomentwithfranca · 21 November 2018 · 32 Comments

Are you looking for some ideas for your Christmas gift list? Well, I think you are in the correct place because I have something very cool to definitely put on your list. I am talking about the brand new YELLIES! from Hasbro! If it is made by Hasbro you know it is going to be great! I love Hasbro toys and this one is going to be so much fun for your little ones, although I am not so sure if it will be fun for you! LOL

We received a big box and didn’t know what was inside it at first. The idea was for the girls to get their hands inside the big box and try to guess what it was.

When we received the box, my girls were not around. They were staying at their grandparents so I decided to check it anyway in advance so I could feel what it was myself. Then I would do the same for the girls.

I explored the box and paid attention to what I needed to do. I didn’t hear anything so I put my hands around the 2 holes that were on each side. I could feel another smaller box.

So I then opened the big box and I found a YELLIES! still inside its packaging. I am glad I actually opened it before my girls could get their hands on it as I know they would have been disappointed if the YELLIES! wasn’t working.

Peeks

I took the YELLIES! out of the package. It comes with a protector which you have to turn clockwise to release the toy. So I did that and I was then able to see our YELLIES!.

We got Peeks, a cute spider! I am not really a fan of spiders but I must admit this one was rather cute! 😉

WHAT IS YELLIES!

YELLIES! are the cutest, fuzziest pets that respond to your voice. Each YELLIES! pet has its own distinct look and personality and is full of fun surprises. Voice and sound-activated, they respond to talking, yelling, clapping, singing, or even music. The louder you yell, the faster they go.

FEATURES & CONTENT

  • Includes 1 Yellies!
  • Sound-activated movement–yell, talk, sing, clap, or play music.
  • The louder you yell, the faster they go!
  • Each cuddly Yellies! spider has a unique personality. 
  • Watch Yellies! pets’ eyes light up and legs move as they respond to your voice.
  • Ages 5 and up
  • 3 x 1.5V A76 alkaline batteries included
  • Not for children under 3 years

One of the things that I love about Hasbro toys is that they come with batteries! It’s one less thing to worry and your child will be so excited to be able to play with it straight away.

SURPRISING THE GIRLS

 

As soon as we arrived, I put the big box in the living room and asked the girls to come. When they arrived and saw the box they were really excited and super curious to find out what was inside.

They both explored the box and put their hands inside the holes. They were able to touch Peeks because it was now without its packaging. I also left it with button ON so it was working already.

They were able to listen to some noises and movements so they just couldn’t wait longer and opened the box! They were so happy to see this cute spider. Peeks was moving everywhere because he moves after any type of noise. Apparently the louder the better so my girls didn’t have a problem to do that!

COLLECT THEM ALL

Hasbro has designed 6 different designs. So there will be at least one your kids will love. You can get any of the following YELLIES!. Which one is your favourite?

  • Yellies! Bo Dangles
  • Yellies! Klutzers
  • Yellies! Peeks
  • Yellies! Harry Scoots
  • Yellies! Toofy Spooder
  • Yellies! Flufferpuff

Each of the 6 different YELLIES! have a specific “personality”, which makes playing with them fun. And they’ll apparently run around together in a group and interact with one another if you put a few in the same room at the same time.

YELLIES! will respond to loud noises but when you speak more softly, they will slow down and scuttle around a little less frantically. If there’s noise, YELLIES! will move from one side of the room to the other. This will definitely keep your kids entertained.

OUR THOUGHTS

My girls loved playing with Peeks. They were actually arguing at one point because they each wanted their own! If your kids are like my girls, I recommend you to get one each so they can all play happily! Kids love things that respond to noises so I am sure this toy will be at the top of the list for Christmas.

Have you made your Christmas list yet? Will YELLIES!be on there perhaps?

    Oh my gosh, I couldn’t tell you who it was but u saw the funniest video and description of these. A woman bought one for her toddler and it just kept chasing him round the more he screamed the more it followed him. He hated it bless him but it was funny. Can’t say it sold it to me though lol. #KCACOLS

      I saw that video too! It was hilarious! Lol My girls aren’t scared at all! They love it! It is actually cute but yes it could be loud at times as the louder the girls yell, the more interaction you get from it! I think George will find it funny! X

    I saw these last week and considered buying them for my brother’s kids but thought better of it. They seem to do enough yelling on their own. I was afraid of what he might get my daughter for her birthday in retaliation #KCACOLS

✨ Cat Cafe In London✨.📍Bella and I went t ✨ Cat Cafe In London✨.📍Bella and I went to @javawhiskersuk , a cat cafe located in @westfieldlondon . This was my present for Mother’s Day from her🌸.🌟 Before we went inside, we had to go to a separate room to wash our hands and remove our shoes..🐾 They have 2 different rooms: the Cat Lounge and the Kitten Lounge and you can choose to stay from 55 mins to 1hr 55 mins. The prices vary depending on the room you choose and the length of time..🍰 When we stepped inside the room we were greeted by a group of gorgeous kittens. We ordered (before we went inside the room) a latte and a delicious chocolate muffin with chocolate melted inside that was so good. This was served to us in the room while we were surrounded by these adorable kittens..🐱 We spent 55 mins playing and petting the kittens. They were so cute. We loved interacting with them..🥰 Their cafe is also a foster home for homeless cats so if you are looking to adopt one, this is the place to visit! They have had 230 successful adoptions already! 🙌🏻.🚨 The only downside is that you have to be over 10 years old in order to be allowed inside the rooms 😬.🐈 If you are a cat lover like us, I highly recommend you visit Java Whiskers! It is the perfect place to unwind and relax with these beautiful kittens! 🙌🏻.Have you visited a Cat Cafe before? 🐈‍⬛ .#javawhiskers #catcafe #catcafelondon #londoncafe #westfieldlondon #londondayout #daysout #thingstodoinlondon #newplaces #londonguide #lovecats😻 #catsofinstagram #catloversday #londonthingstodo #whatsonlondon

I will talk more about this experience on another post but if you swipe left you can see a little peak of our time there! 🐈😉.Today, the girls and Nick took me for the actually Mother’s Day celebration 🎉 to @cafejackss in Queen’s Park where we had brunch. It was a yummy treat. Swipe left to check it out! 😋 .After that we went for a walk. There was a small market nearby so it was nice to have a little look around 😍. We then went back home and spent the rest of the day chilling which is something, I’m not going to lie, I love doing! 😉😂.How was your day?#mothersdayuk #mothersdayweekend #mothersday2023 #motherofdaughters #mumoftwo #mumofgirls #mydaughters #lovemydaughters #daughterslove #mummydaughtertime #daughtersarethebest #daughtersrock #spendingtimetogether #happyfamilytime #familytime💕
✨My Girls✨.Due to the strikes we had Sienna ✨My Girls✨.Due to the strikes we had Sienna at home yesterday and today, and Bella only today. I thought it would be very chaotic but despite it always being louder when the girls are at home, especially my youngest one, lol, we did well..Bella did school work at home today and had the afternoon free. Sienna didn’t do school work. We only asked her to carry on doing Spanish and Maths via Duolingo. She also had Spanish lessons this afternoon (every Thursday she has lessons) so both days were manageable thankfully 😍.How was it for you? Did your kids stay at home or did they go to school? .PS: let’s hope things get better for teachers.

✨Happy Weekend✨.How is your weekend going so ✨Happy Weekend✨.How is your weekend going so far? I am finally feeling more normal after the massive jetlag I had after my trip to South America. I am not sure why it hit me so much this time but it has taken me about two solid weeks to properly be back to my routine without feeling right. Waking up in the mornings was the worst. It was very hard, especially when I had to be on time for the school run! 😩.Anyway, everything feels better now! 😊.How long does it take you to be back to normal after a jetlag? Do you have any tricks or tips to speed this process? .📸 Selfy taken in Barranco, a lively district in Peru considered to be one of the most romantic and bohemian places to visit and being the home and working place of many Peruvian artists, musicians, designers, photographers among others 😎.#thisisme #selfie #instaselfie #smilemore #brunettehair #greeneyes #over40#over40blogger #overforty #overfortystyle #over40andfabulous #over40mom #outandabout #barrancolima
✨The Costa Verde✨.Lima, the capital of Peru ✨The Costa Verde✨.Lima, the capital of Peru is located on the coast. Walking along the sidewalk of the Malécon in Lima’s picturesque seaside district, Miraflores, you can admire the most beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean. .The “Costa Verde” is a coastal road. It runs along the south-central part of the Lima coast. You can visit in the morning for a jog or in the evening to enjoy a relaxing walk. It is a very lively where people have fun in the open air..This is one of the best attractions on the coastal road. You will see several parks with sculptures of famous artists that make this walk even more unique and enjoyable. Along the route, you can find numerous recreational activities such as surfing and paragliding..If you keep walking you will arrive at “Larcomar” which is a shopping centre and has many restaurants and cafes so you can enjoy a coffee or a meal with the gorgeous ocean view too. .Pictures explained below:1. Start of my walk with the view of the ocean showing one the most gorgeous restaurants in Lima “La Rosa Nautica” where you can walk along the pier and then seat down for a meal with a sea view. Very scenic 😍2. 📸 Greater view of the coast showing the Pacific Ocean3. 🎥 Parque Chino (Chinese Park)4. 📸 Parque El Libro (The Book Park) showing a colorful sculpture, “Silencio” created by Peruvian artist José Tola.5. 📸 Parque del Amor (Love Park) showing its larger-than-life sculpture of two lovers in a deep embrace called “The Kiss”. The monument to love was created by Peruvian artist Víctor Delfín. 6. 📸 Faro de Lima (lighthouse)7. 🎥 View of the Pacific Ocean from Barranco area where you can see Lima Marina Club, a members only club. .If you visit Lima, I highly recommend you to have a walk along this gorgeous area. You won’t regret it! (Save this post for later 😀).Do you enjoy walks with a coastal view?
