Hamster Battle

Published by admin under Pandemonium on July 8, 2010

I got another opportunity through MomSelect to play with Cepia’s awesome Zhu Zhu Pets. Only this time it was their new Kung Zhu line. I thought for some reason I had signed up to receive one to review and then give one away on my  bloggity blog.  Imagine my surprise when the fed-ex guy drops off the box the size of a small kitchen appliance full of Kung Zhu pets and accesories. I freaked. Turns out they wanted me to host a party.

I completely embraced my inner ninja. I got some inexpensive $1 white fabric from Walmart to make some nija headbands for the kids to color on w/ some fabric markers. We had orange chicken, egg rolls, fruit kabobs (minus kabob sticks….don’t ask I think we just ended up throw’n the fruit in a bucket. Never realized lil wooden sticks could be such a hazard….) and trail mix. What ninja warrior or special forces ranger wouldn’t love that, right? I had planned a bunch of games, but the kids really enjoyed the Kung Zhu pets so much they never got around to it. Half of them didn’t even color their headbands ;( lol. I think Matt was like the best cousin ever that day. The majority of the children we had over were Vera & Naomi’s 2nd cousins. They’re all right in that age range to really enjoy battery operated hamsters.  The kids got to take home a Kung Zhu hamster and a corresponding battle armor. That really made their day.

Hamster battle has continued on in our household since. Those things make some weird noises….like horse and lion noises. I finally got it all picked up the other day. I was sneaking it away piece by piece so Vera wouldn’t notice. She was REALLY into them. More so I thought then the originals. I found that kind of humorous because the Kung Zhu’s were marketed to little boys. I guess Cepia hasn’t met our warrior princess haha.
