tiny – The Next Kid Thing

A few weeks ago, I doted on the cuteness of t he teeny tiny trend at Toy Fair, but I left out one tiny toy in specific, simply because I think it deserves its own post. Zibits might be small in size, but they’re big enough to warrant their own post for being so cute.

At just 2-inches, Zibits from Senario, the new remote controlled miniature robots, might be small in size, but are big on fun.

Check out the size of this Zibit in comparison to the Blackberry:

I had the chance to meet with Mike Nakamura, the founder and CEO Senario to learn more about Zibits firsthand. After talking to Mike, I learned that there’s already been a lot interest in Zibits from kids (and adults) of all ages.

Toy Fair had so many larger than life toys that were on display, but one trend that I noticed that paralleled the aforementioned accessibility theme was the presence of so many teeny tiny toys. And for this first toy, I’m talking tiny.

Teeny Little Families

Bandai was showcasing their new Tiny Little Families line, which is described to be the smallest collectible doll. The story behind these guys is that the little animal families–The Bakers, Acorns, Nibbles, Purrbrights, Waddles and Pollywogs–take up residence in abandoned, mundane objects such as shoes, alarm clocks and even a wee little cell phone. Their little town/playsets include homes, pampering spots and many more locations for the families to enjoy. Teeny Little Families is a new take on doll houses, giving girls another alternative for cutesy collectibles.
