New Zippies “the pals that hang around” are quickly becoming the nation’s next kids’ craze. These round flexible characters help children to identify their things by simply clipping them onto any belonging — water bottles, lunch boxes, backpacks, jackets, and even bicycles. Each collectible Zippies ID tag features a different character on one side with a place for contact information on the other.
I received a set of five Zippies and plan on giving them out at my son’s Birthday party to some of the guests, but already have an idea of what we will use ours on. My little one carries his teddy bear everywhere, so I though it might be a great idea to attach a Zippie to his bear in case he ever loses it. I know when I was growing up, I dropped my teddy bear on the boardwalk and luckily someone saw me and brought it to me. Now with a Zippie attached to my sons bear, we have a better chance of it being returned should he ever lose it.
Because Zippies have a place to write contact information, it is great comfort knowing that your information will be easily accessible if your child’s items are lost.
You know what would also be a great idea? Attaching it to your pets collar in addition to their tags! There are so many ideas, that I am sure you will come up with your own unique use.
Zippies have a rubber loop to attach onto items, or you can detach it to clip the pal on a key ring. If you have more than one child, Zippies are a great way to identify items like toys, so your children won’t argue about what’s theirs. PLUS, with all of the Zippies having their own name and personality, your child can pick the Zippie they like best.
Available in 10 different characters, such as a walrus, Wally, or frog, Faina, Zippies sell for $3.99 each, $15.95 for a five pack or $29.95 for the entire limited-edition first series. They can be ordered online at www.zippiesfun.com and found at select retailers.
Disclosure: I was provided with a set of five Zippies to facilitate this review and giveaway.
