The Squinkies Cupcake Surprise Bake Shop is shaped in the form of a large cupcake with a slot on the top. If you take off the cherry you can fill the cupcake with either the 9 bake related Squinkies that come with the toy or any of the hundreds of other ones available. You then simply enter a dime or the Squinkies coin, turn the dial and the cupcake dispenses a Squinkie just like a real vending machine. Don’t worry about your child becoming bored as the Cupcake opens up to become a bakeshop and this will keep her amused for ages.

This toy isn’t suitable for those kids who like to put things in their mouths as they are so small. You can buy individual Squinkies as stocking filler. The Squinkies bubble packs come in a series so you can tell people which ones your daughter has so they don’t double up. The bubble packs contain up to 16 individual balls and start from about $8. You can buy a couple of different ones to make sure you have a variety of different characters although with over 100 available it may take you a while to collect them all.

Parents will love the Squinkies Cupcake Surprise toy as it doesn’t require batteries and also provides a place to store all the little tiny toys. If other people are asking you what they can buy for your daughter you could direct them towards the Squinkies Gumball Surprise Playhouse or the Tea Time Surprise. Both follow the same principle in that they act as miniature gumball machines but are very cute and colorful. If your little one already owns loads of these, the Squinkies Place Surprise makes a useful display stand. The Tote and Go Organizer is a handy carry case and holds up to 140 bubbles.

Are these educational toys? No, not really although some parents argue they inspire creativity and imagination. They certainly lend themselves well to storytelling and sharing. But then playtime shouldn’t always be about learning. Sometimes our kids just need to have fun and the Squinkies Cupcake Surprise Bake Shop will help them do that.
