Customer Reviews
I bought the fancy nins for my daughter’s 4th birthday, I was little worried the hats would be a choking hazard for her 15 month old sister but the hats are a good size. Definitely bigger than what I expected, they’re going to be a big hit for sure!
For my last birthday I asked my husband to give my kids a choice of a select few things from Babipur, and they chose these - which I was thrilled with. They are just absolutely gorgeous, and me and my children (5 and 3) have very much enjoyed playing with them. We haven't encountered problems with the hats falling off, they are either swiftly replaced or held in such a way to keep the hats on. These are definitely our "sassiest" nins and have got into all sorts of funny situations and arguments (who has the best hat? Iiiiii do!). The standard Nins are nice because it's all down to your imagination but these ones are fun because there is a "hook" for kids to bounce off e.g. one of them is a wizard because of the pointy hat, the beehive type hair is a fancy lady and so on.
I got these with birthday money for myself and I was not disappointed. They are beautiful. I love sitting quietly changing their hats!
I use them for our monthly celebration ring display. The children also really enjoy them: small world play, colour matching and contrasting colours.
These are just magnificent in their detail and simplicity. Hats fit on nicely and have been extensively played with by our one and two and a half year old. They aren’t so wibbley they are frustrating but some have a more snug fit than others.
Both children absolutely loved this gift, they loved swapping the hats and giving them different outfits.
The hats are a little bit wobbly, but still loved playing with them, they soon figured out they couldn't turn them upside down and fly them about.
Lovely tactile wooden toy, that should last many years, and is a bright colourful addition to their toys. The near rainbow colours were great for colour sorting and matching games too.
