Wicked Cool Toys & Gift Ideas for Kids

by Katie Wallace | Updated: December 2, 2017

My kids love collecting tiny toys. They enjoy adding to sets they already have and they love setting up little play sets and making up story lines. My girls typically are able to play pretend around age 3, and now that both my girls are older than 3 they have lots of fun playing together and setting up their toys. We recently discovered some fun play sets from Wicked Cool Toys that feature re-imagined mini versions of the Cabbage Patch dolls. My girls loved checking out the details of these miniature Little Sprouts play sets and also discovering which surprise creatures were inside their Egg Babies!

Little Sprouts Cabbage Patch Dolls

Wicked Cool Toys designs creative play sets that encourage kids to make up stories and play together. My girls are 2.5 years apart so they pretty much have a constant friend around all the time. They loved opening each Little Sprouts set which included packs of dolls and pets, individual “surprise” dolls inside cabbage holders, and the detailed Little Sprouts Cabbage Academy school set.

The Little Sprouts Cabbage Academy set includes 1 doll and 3 play areas: Flip Up Study Hall, Classroom and Slide Out Playground. The adorable miniature accessories include 2 desks, 1 chair, a globe, a basketball and a flipping easel. Many of the tiny details are interactive such as opening lockers, math and spelling chalkboard, double sided easel, removable desks, real working swing, basketball and net, a removable slide and miniature globe.

I was impressed with the whimsical quality of this set, which is especially fun if you add some extra character sets to it! My 5-year-old daughter said her favorite details were the upper flip-up classroom and all of the tiny characters.

You can also collect the Little Sprouts friends packs which include kids, babies, pets and tiny accessories. Some of the Little Sprouts sets have hidden surprise characters inside! Surprises are a fun element for kids who are opening the box.

My daughters of course loved all the kids characters, babies, and variety of tiny pets. Little Sprouts sets are great stocking stuffers and budget-friendly birthday gifts for kids. These little cabbage surprise packs each have at least one surprise character inside. One of our cabbage surprises had a girl doll and the other contained a baby and a puppy.

Wicked Cool Toys Egg Babies

If your kids love opening surprises they will also love Egg Babies! These mystery toys consist of a colorful Styrofoam egg with a surprise creature inside. Kids can easily crack open these eggs to find the hidden pal, which could be one of the creatures pictured on the packaging or an entirely surprise creature!

Egg Babies come in a variety of colors with a hidden creature inside. These fun toys make great gifts for kids who love stuffed animals and they are reasonably priced at $10-$12 (depending on where you buy).

Which of these toys would your kids love the most? I enjoy helping my kids expand their play sets and add to existing toy collections. Wicked Cool Toys designs like these Little Sprouts and Egg Babies inspire interactive playtime with friends and siblings!

💡 Essential tips for traveling with our 4 kids! 💡 Essential tips for traveling with our 4 kids!

🧳 Pack light with items that do more

We bring clothes that mix and match, quick-dry layers, fold-flat totes, and activities that encourage creativity. Think art supplies and travel board games. The less we carry, the more we can explore.

🥪 Eat often and try new flavors
We use snack stops and meals to experience local culture. Bakeries, fruit stands, and small cafés become our favorite spots. 

🏞️ Choose simple adventures over packed days
We go on kid-friendly hikes, stop at playgrounds, and tour cultural centers. We visit great houses, historic workhouses, and local museums.

📱 Use screens sparingly
Ideally our kids only use screens on travel days, and with a time limit. Shows and multi-player games can help turn dull afternoons into family fun!

🔦 Encourage curiosity
We explore as much as we can with our four kids, shopping at markets, using public transportation, and visiting immersive attractions. We find many free activities, and budget for must-see destinations.

Our kids are our biggest fans 🙌🎬 Making YouT Our kids are our biggest fans 🙌🎬
Making YouTube videos of our family adventures has been such a great way to share and save our family memories. We watch our vids all the time, which take us right back to the special moments. Our audience is growing slowly, but it’s really not about that at all!

Because we travel with our kids, our children are brave and adventurous — willing to try new things and eager to problem solve. Adventurous kids are resourceful kids!

We visited the Trevi Fountain in Rome during Easte We visited the Trevi Fountain in Rome during Easter weekend. ⛲️✨ Even though the streets of Rome were packed, this site had crowd control security, who only let a few people down in front of the fountain at a time.

We stood in line for 10 minutes, and were given unrushed time to take photos and video clips in front of this iconic landmark. 📸 We have no idea whether this is normal, but it was such a special highlight in Rome! 

Have you been to the Trevi Fountain? What was your experience with the crowds?
