What Makes A Go Go Pet Such A Good Idea?

Fun Stuff

Go Go Pets now have four furry hamsters that make up their product line.

They can drive, skateboard and surf, as well as perform regular hamster activities, like scurrying around and making cute little hamster noises.

They are, of course, programmed toys that replicate hamsters.

There are four Zhu Zhu pet hamsters. Each hamster has a name and will behave like a real hamster, by squeaking and scurrying around.

So, the question is, “What makes these toys such good toys for my child?”

I can think of three reasons why Zhu Zhu Pets are a good toy option for your child.

  • They are fun and they stimulate your child’s imagination.
  • Go Go Pets are a great compromise to owning and caring for a real animal.
  • Mechanically they work well and are durable.

Let’s look at each of these.
Let’s face it. Most children soon discover dogs and cats, turtles and hamsters.

Most children want an animal the minute they know what they are. But as parents, we know that perhaps our child isn’t yet old enough or disciplined enough to properly care for the pet.

Its true that having a real animal to take care of can teach your child a lot of great lessons.

But you can also say that when your child is not ready, then you as the parent and head of household, would end up caring for your child’s pet while they are outside playing with their friends.

The great thing about a Go Go Pet is that you can satisfy your child’s delight in having a ‘pet’, yet there is no burden of care required of YOU!

If you don’t want the hassle of pet ownership, and yet you want your child to somewhat experience what a pet is like, then Go Go Pets toys are the answer.

Also, Go Go Pets are well built and the programming is amazing.

When your go go hamster goes into the bathroom, it detects where it is and makes little bathroom noises appropriately. It can make the sound of running water or teeth brushing. When your go go pet scuttles into the bedroom, it will make sleeping and snoring sounds.

One of the shortcomings of your Zhu Zhu pet is that when you first get it, most likely you will need to replace the batteries.

Go Go Pets are great for helping your child to pretend and imagine.
If you get the go go pet products that accompany the hamsters (like a surfboard, skateboard, exercise wheel, etc) then your child can pretend that their hamster is doing all sorts of fun activities.

… in short, they will develop a whole living world in which hamsters are exciting and adventurous. It is a very good mental exercise for children to develop their pretend world. Your child gets to use their imagination instead of sitting in front of the tv being mesmorized
