One of the hottest toys this Christmas is Zhu Zhu Pets - small, robotic hamsters that retail for $8.00. I hadn’t seen the commercials for these adorable creatures and had never heard of them until I saw an empty display at Toys R Us that said there was a limit of four Zhu Zhu Pets to a customer. Naturally this had me intrigued. What was this popular toy that my four year old hadn’t even mentioned she wanted?
Finally she saw the commercial and then wanted one - or two. Luckily I ran across them in stock at the store and was able to get her two - an early Christmas present.
You can turn on your Zhu Zhu Pet by pressing the button located on its back, forehead, or nose. Just press a button again to turn it off. The Zhu Zhu Pet will scurry off into one direction and then change directions - all the while making cute, funny sounds. My personal favorite sound is the crowing rooster. You can also buy accessories for your pet that it will zoom through - much like a real hamster.
Overall the Zhu Zhu Pet is a cute little hamster that is quite entertaining and might be the best bargain under $10 this holiday season.

I think that it is amazing how the kids are attached to these zuhzuh pets. It has become a big thing this year. I would say that there is a lot of people going to be buying these for Christmas this year. I know all the kids in the family have been asking Santa for one of the pets. I figure we will have a lot of these around the house.
