Back to Normal!

Phew!  By now most if not all of the kids (in Scotland anyway) are back to School - and we have made it!  The summer holidays are over and normality can resume!

We know that this is the time of year that cool collectables are brought to the attention of all kids - and parents - with cries of "But Mum, EVERYONE has one".  

Whilst these "crazes" seem to come from nowhere, and may appear to be a bit of a headache at times, they can in fact offer some great learning opportunities for kids.  According to UKMums.tv kids learn great developmental skills including building social skills and developing a creative mind.  We've also found as parents that they can be a great tool in negotiating the fast completion of chores & homework!

Lego Minifigures Series 5 £1.99

At The Hub in Dunblane High Street we aim to offer you a fantastic selection of pocket money collectables with the benefit of local convenience and a great understanding of the ranges available.  This month we've already seen the release of LEGO Minifigures Series 5, Ickee Stickeez and Star Wars Force Attax.  In September we look forward to new series releases from Match Attax and Deadly 60, as well as new products Bumpeez and Heroes.  

Moshi Monsters Moshlings Foil Pack £1.99

Moshi Monsters is still top of the collectable list as well, with us stocking up on existing collectables such as stickers, mash-up cards & moshlings.  There will also be new watches, collectable tins and calendars for 2012 coming soon. 

If you want to know more about the latest collectables you can view our website at www.thehubdirect.co.uk where the hottest items are available for pre-order to make sure your wee ones don't miss out!  

If you want to earn extra cool bonus points from the kids, "like" us on Facebook and be the first to find out when their favourite craze is hitting our shelves!

OUR TOYS NEED YOU!

Do you and your kids LOVE LEGO, are you Moshi Monster MAD, can you tell your Moshlings from your Puffles and know just what the latest collectable craze is?  Well if so we have the job for you.... 
 

The Hub are delighted to announce that we have an opening for a child's Ultimate Dream Job - Toy Tester!  We are looking for a child (or maybe even a couple of children) to test some of the toys we're selling online and in our Dunblane High Street store!  

Christmas is going to come early for the lucky winner, who will get to keep the toys they will be testing.  All they have to do is let us know what they think of them, and we will publish their reviews on our blog and website!

Our key brands which may need to be tested, include LEGO, Moshi Monsters, Star Wars, Club Penguin, Mega-Bloks and more.....

 

The competition is open now to children aged between 4 and 14, and the form is available in-store or online.  Applications must be submitted by October 1st, terms & conditions apply.   

Good Luck!
