Over twenty years ago, I remember going to my local mall and buying all manner of things Hello Kitty. Back then, Hello Kitty was something new for young girls and even older girls. Today, Hello Kitty is still around and my twins like Hello Kitty as well. That is cool! How I liked Hello Kitty fifty years ago!
Wow, that is a long time to share the love of Hello Kitty with much of kids and now my twins love her as well. This lovable toy (character) appears to find its way through every generation. I remember when Hello Kitty was brought into the marketplace, at least when I first saw her in stores and malls.
I remember my mall had a Hello Kitty store, full of all this Hello Kitty merchandise. I must have been nine or ten when I purchased my first Hello Kitty toy.
I was purchasing this gorgeous kitty cat and so were my friends. All my friends, from the district and school, had this little kitty and I remember taking mine to school and showing off my latest ?pet? toy.
You may think the Hello Kitty toy (character) was created in Japan, but that is incorrect. As it turns out, Hello Kitty and her family, were created in Europe in 1974. Now, the firm that makes this endearing character is Sanrio, a Japanese firm, but she was created in Europe.
Did you know that Hello Kitty has a twin sister? Yes, her twin sister?s name is Mimi and her parents are George and Mary. It is as if these characters are real, in a sense. As I stated above, now my twins, who are not indistinguishable, like Hello Kitty and are best friends just like Mimi and Hello Kitty are.
The Hello Kitty brand has expanded in a big way. When this merchandise was first created, all that was available to little girls were some toys and note books. Now, almost everywhere you go, mall, strip mall, mass retailers and online, you will find clothing such as tank tops, shirts, sweaters, socks, boots, flip flops, umbrellas, watches, rings, necklaces, backpacks, luncheon boxes, clocks and so much more.
Anything you want can be found in their stores and online. There seem to be more goods online than in stores, but it appears more and more Hello Kitty products are being produced and added everyday.
Some more items you child may like are a selection of video games - there are quite a few video games to play these days. Along with video games, there are movies, books, stickers and tattoos. The theme of Hello Kitty goes on and on. It does not matter where your child is, they can get and or use Hello Kitty.
If your youngster is having a party, you can buy party plates, cups, decorations and face painting kits. If you or your child has a mobile phone, you can now use a cell phone cover or case for your iPhone4.
Little girls, or older girls, can buy Hello Kitty bedding as well. For adult women, if you use a credit card, a Hello Kitty Credit Card is now available too. Hello Kitty has been and continues to remain a very popular brand for kids and adults alike.
