Shopkins, Shopkins, Shopkins... they are everywhere around our house.
In 2014 the girls where introduced to Shopkins I thought it would be a passing fad. Small odd looking plastic items that came in a shopping basket. No Shopkins is still very popular in our house. I am forever stepping on them, finding them in my shoes, they are hidden in pillow cases and the other day I even had one in my bowl of cereal. The verdict Little Opinions lovvvvvves Shopkins.
Season 1 Shopkins hit the shelfs over a year ago with Season 2 coming out earlier this year and now season 3 will be starting to appear in shops from June/July 2015.

Alyssa's Little Opinion: I have 82 Shopkins from Season 1 and 2. I love saving my money and buying the packs I cannot wait to start buying season 3. Its even exciting when I get a double. The best part is the secret shopkin, its always fun to unwrap it and see what you have gotten. I've already asked for more Shopkins for my Christmas presents.
Ellie's Little Opinion: I have 174 Shopkins, they are from Season 1 and 2. I like both seasons as they each have different characters. I liked how the shopping baskets change colour each season. Season one had blue baskets, season 2 purple baskets and season 3 I am not sure.
My favourite season would be season 2 as there are more details on the Shopkins plus they also had baby Shopkins. I really really cannot wait until I start seeing season 3 in the shops. I've already brought the season 3 Ice cream truck I am still searching for the packs.
I also have the Shopkins small market, bakery, fruit stall, fridge, vending machine and many many baskets. I really enjoy collecting Shopkins and I like to save up and buy the 12 pack. I especially like the blind bags you get in the packs, its really exciting opening them up to see what you have received.

Mum's Big Opinion: I am still trying to work out what the big appeal is? The girls are obessed with playing with their mini toilet rolls, shoes, fruit etc. They just love them and they can keep themselves entertained for hours especially when the girls combine their shopkins and accessories and go shopping with their hundreds of baskets.
This is one toy that the girls have continually played with and hasn't been put in the corner. Surely the fad is coming to an end? I think not especially with season 3 just about to hit the shelves. I am sure at this rate there will be a season 4,5 and 6 !!!!!
