#LOLSurprise Launch Party

On Monday we headed into Westfield, London for the L.O.L Surprise Launch Party!

Popular young YouTuber Toys AndMe was there, who was going to do the big reveal and 'unboxing' of these these fun new collectibles.

We then got to meet her afterwards inside The Entertainer toy shop which was lovely because all three of my younger kids have watched her You Tube channel!

The L.O.L Surprise Dolls are set to be massive!

You get seven layers of fun with every L.O.L. Surprise doll! Inside there is a secret message sticker, a collectible sticker sheet, a water bottle charm, a pair of shoes, an outfit, an accessory and a L.O.L. Surprise!

The event was open to the public and caused quite a big stir. Hoards of children queued up to get their hands on the toys, which I can't blame them for... they DO look so enticing with their ball shape and gorgeous colour!

Inside The Entertainer, the kids all sat down unwrapping the L.O.L Surprise Dolls, eager to see which combination of goodies they had inside!

The L.O.L. Surprise doll itself is the best layer of the surprise! Dress her in all of the accessories you've revealed. Each character is completely different and there are over 45 dolls to collect in Series 1!

We were at the event with some of our blogger friends including Ruth from Rocknrollerbaby, Katy from Modern Mummy, Emma from The Joy of Five and Karen from N4 Mummy, which made the day even more fun! We all plotted up in the food courts of Westfields and plonked all the kids together on this long table, where they proceeded to unwrap their many L.O.L Surprise Dolls! So exciting are these... uncovering all the little secret hiding places for the bits and bobs inside is so much fun, and they appealed to the boys in the group just as much as the girls!

Even though my daughter is a bit older (she's 11), and not particularly into dolls anymore (sob!), she LOVED these little collectibles! She has since played around with them quite a lot at home which is wonderful to see! Beats seeing her glued to her ipad that's for sure!

We had a great time at the event and finding out about the L.O.L Surprises. They retail at around £8 which I think is reasonable, considering you'd pay almost £5 for a small packet of trading cards! You get a lot more for you money with these and a lot more play factor too!

You can pick them up at most good toy retailers.
