Dreamworld Trolls by Mattel

Image
  Not too long ago, Walmart put their Dreamworks Trolls on sale for $5.97, so I decided to grab one. I never saw the movie, but I collected Russ trolls as a little girl, so I have occasionally added a thrift store troll to my collection through the years after losing all the ones I had as a child. Also, being a fan of the Pink Plastic Princess means the Mattel label on the package didn’t hurt, so I nabbed the pink girl troll.    The box date is 2023 and the packaging says “Dreamworks Trolls Band Together.” Related : Mouse in the House Caters to Kids Elf on the Shelf Falling Out of Favor ?

Celebrity Elves Make the Holidays Celebratory

 Martha on the Mantle, Snoop on the Stoop & Trump Elves for the Holidays  Move over Elf on the Shelf. You are not the only elf in the house anymore!  Snoop on the Stoop appeared a few years ago and has achieved enough popularity to come back every year.  New this year are Martha on the Mantle (available at Walmart) and the Trump Elf from Proud Patriots  Since  Elf on the Shelf is falling out of favor  with some parents, maybe it’s time to consider a new elf. The Martha Stewart elf is a holiday tradition. The Snoop elf is a hood tradition. And the Trump elf is a presidential tradition.  And if that’s not enough holiday celebrity for you, maybe you can find the Mariah Carey “All I Want for Christmas” elf from Kidrobat which came out in 2021 to put under your tree.  Related: Elf on the Shelf Falling Out of Favor ?
