Most toy makers are vying for the popular position of Christmas toy hit this season, and the guys at SpinMaster are no exception. They are always introducing new toy lines and new toys in their already popular line ups of toys. The latest edition is a take on Bakugan and yet the target market is the younger 4 and up market group.

What Bakugan are to scary, Zoobles are to cute. The Zoobles come from the magical isle of Zooble where they are shy creatures who can curl up in a ball and hide, but when they reveal themselves they become cute little creatures. They open up when a magnet inside the Zooble ball is activated by a metal strip within certain play sets. So they can sit in a Zooble tree and they will open to reveal the cute creature within.

The Zooble line is being introduced just in time to gear up for the holiday season. Whether this toy will be the it toy this season is hard to say, but knowing the track record of SpinMaster it should be a popular toy either way. SpinMaster has gotten some things right with Bakugan and Liv Dolls and they hope to continue the tradition with Zoobles.

Zoobles hail from the Island of Zooble. They are adorable tiny creatures that are normally very shy, but when they want to they open up and reveal all of the cuteness inside. This fall and holiday season keep on the look out for more Zoobles related toys and characters. If SpinMaster hopes to have the Zoobles be as popular as Bakugan the video series or online component will have to be a hit as well.

If cool little balls that magically open are to be popular, then the creature need to be really cute or there needs to be a story line. This leads to the need for a Zooble cartoon or video series, which could start a snow ball effect of Zooble popularity the same way the Bakugan videos catapulted the Bakugan game to popularity.

In J. M. Barrie’s 1902 novel The Little White Bird, in a chapter about Peter Pan a story about the origin of fairies appears. Barrie who also created the Tinkerbell character, wrote, “…when the first baby laughed for the first time, its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies.”

Fairies, also known as fays, feys, faerys, faeries and collectively as fae, wee folk and good folk are tiny, humanoid, supernatural creatures. Often winged and mischievous, in many cultures fairies are also known to possess magical powers. Sometimes the term fairy describes any magical creature, including goblins or gnomes: at other times, the term only describes a specific type of more ethereal creature.

Their origins are unclear with some sources describing them as some form of angel, others as a species completely independent of humans or angels while others still believe they represent the spirit of the dead. Among all the folklore that surrounds fairies, it is difficult to pinpoint exactly when and where the Tooth Fairy legend began. In early Europe, it was a tradition to bury baby teeth that fell out and some believe that the Tooth Fairy evolved from the tooth mouse depicted in “La Bonne Petite Souris” (The Good Little Mouse), an 18th century French language fairy tale. In the tale a mouse changes into a fairy to help a good queen defeat an evil king by hiding under his pillow to torture him and knocking out all his teeth.

This combination of ancient intercontinental traditions has evolved into one that in one form or another is present almost worldwide. For example, in Spanish-speaking countries, the Tooth Fairy is in fact a character called Ratoncito Pérez, a little mouse created around 1894 by the priest Luis Coloma. Coloma, as court priest, was asked to write a tale for eight-year old royal Alfonso XIII, as one of his teeth had fallen out and Ratón Pérez appeared in the tale of the Vain Little Mouse. In Italy also the Tooth Fairy (Fatina) is often substituted by a small mouse and in France this character is called La Petite Souris (the little mouse).

From certain parts of Scotland comes thetradition of the Fairy Mouse: a white fairy rat which purchases the teeth with coins. In some Asian countries, such as India, Korea and Vietnam, when a child loses a tooth the usual custom is that he or she should throw it onto the roof if it came from the lower jaw, or into the space beneath the floor if it came from the upper jaw. While doing this, the child shouts a request for the tooth to be replaced with the tooth of a mouse. This is based on the fact that the teeth of mice go on growing for their whole life, a characteristic of all rodents. In Japan, a lost upper tooth is thrown straight down to the ground and lower teeth straight up into the air; the idea is that incoming teeth will grow straight.

Regardless of their origins, children world wide have a fascination with the Tooth Fairy and with all types of fairies. From the Flower Fairies book – by Cicely Mary Barker – first published in 1923, to today’s Disney Fairies of Pixie Hollow, fairies have a timeless and universal appeal. Many sites are dedicated to bringing you fairy tales and activities and at sites like Fairy Coloring Pages you’ll find the best coloring pages of Tinkerbell
