The girls were absolutely thrilled to receive their very own Little Shop Collection case filled with lots of Little Shop’s mini collectibles. Bella wasted no time and she took full advantage of having the Little Shop Collection case all to herself whilst Flo napped. She soon got lost in a world where her toy dog figurines were doing their weekly shop and her cow figurine was the checkout assistant, the scanner even mooed!

I absolutely love the whole concept of Little Shop. It not only educates children on the importance of having a balanced diet, it also helps them understand where their food comes from and most importantly it injects some fun into food shopping #mumwin. Little Shop by M&S also encourages imaginative play, the girls both enjoyed playing their own little games.

It wasn’t long until Flo woke up and demanded that Bella “shared” their Little Shop goodies. Flo really enjoyed exploring the different Little Shop Mini Collectibles, stopping each time to ask “what’s that?” It took her a while to understand that she couldn’t actually eat the collectibles, but she gave it a good shot each time.

In the Little Shop Big Month, you can get two surprise mini collectible packs when you spend £20 or more! Each pack includes one mini collectible, a tick box collectors leaflet and a collectors card with fun facts. You can also buy a Little Shop Collection Case for just £3, Little Shop Apron for £3, Little Basket for £3, Little Trolley for £3 and a Little Shop front for just £10.

From Percy Pigs to Colin the Caterpillar cake, to freshly squeezed orange juice to petite pois, The Little Shop mini collectibles allows your little one to collect 25 of M&S favourite food products. If you go to the M&S website https://www.marksandspencer.com/c/food-to-order/little-shop/play there are also a variety of games for you to download and print out, to keep your miniature shoppers entertained. You can even pop to your local M&S Food Information Desk and to ask to swap one of your doubles and you can exchange them for a different one if other duplicates have been handed in.

The Little Shop by M&S really is fun for all the family. Don’t forget that once they have gone, they are gone, so head to your local M&S and get collecting! I’m going to get the girls a Little Trolley and Little Shop front as the girls love playing shops.
