Polly Pocket the perfect partner for your little adventurer!!
I feel like I should begin this post with a little confession, when we were invited recently to a Polly Pocket Blog event I just knew that I had to say yes because even though Little Bean doesn’t actually have any Polly Pocket toys (yet!), I do! Yes, hello my name is Sabina, I am (nearly) 36 years old and I have my very own Polly Pocket doll!!!! I have occasionally entertained the idea of giving her to Little Bean but I can’t, she’s mine and she is special to me.
Let me take you back a few years to the early days of living with my now Hubby (then boyfriend). One evening he presented me with a small present, it was a little box containing a Polly Pocket doll complete with handbag, boots and a change of clothes. I looked him like he had lost his marbles, did he know how old I was? Then he explained, for the past few nights in my dreams I had been upset and calling out that I couldn’t find my Polly Pocket doll and so he thought it would be amusing to buy me my very own and I still have her today.
Polly Pocket, as you would expect is a pocket-sized doll with a life-size personality. With Polly Pocket your little girls can live a life of adventure and be bound only by the limits of their imagination. Our children have great imagination, I love listening to them playing together in the garden in the playhouse, to me and Hubby it’s just a playhouse with a little wooden kitchen in it, but to Curly, Little Bean and Beanie Boy its a Pirate Ship and together they sail the most dangerous of seas in search of treasure. When bouncing on our bed they are jumping through the clouds to the land in the skies where the fairies live and sliding down on a rainbow to the pot of gold. It’s all about letting their imagination go wherever the feeling takes them and that is exactly the ethos of Polly Pocket, life should be an adventure for living.
Polly Pocket now has some amazing new additions to their already cool toy range which the children were able to play with when we visited Chessington World of Adventure Holiday Inn recently for a Polly Pocket blog event. There were all sorts of activities arranged to keep the children entertained but Little Bean and Beanie Boy were happiest when just playing with Polly Pocket and her friends with the funky cars and trendy playhouse.
On the day we were introduced to Gary Pope (right) from Kids Industries and Jon Fish from Chessington World of Adventures. They both talked about the importance of imaginative play and having fun. They felt that Polly Pocket and Chessington World of Adventures were perfect for each other because Polly Pocket is all about adventure and that is what Chessington is all about too.
