Kids’ TV presenter Jamie Rickers says: “It’s all about swapability to become a playground craze – if you can’t trade it, it’ll not make it in the playground for very long. Beyond the new subject matter in the classroom there is the burning question of what’s attracting attention at break times, which collectables are hot property, and what’s hot to swap. Well, that’s it. The kids are back at school, and attention now turns to the term ahead. We were hard pressed to choose something from the line-up of merchandise on offer – it extends from trading cards to talking plush characters – but we opted for these cute and collectable Moshlings. Moshi Monsters, the social network for kids, is everywhere. Monster Mash – Moshling Blind Bag – £1. Here’s our pick of the half dozen hottest properties for the coming term. If you’ve not heard of the latest craze sweeping the nation, may we welcome you back from your holiday in Outer Mongolia.
