Hexbug Nano Easter Egg Party!

A few weekends ago we held a Hexbug Nano Easter Egg Party.  Just what is a Hexbug Nano? Hexbugs are robotic creatures that act like real bugs!  Quite frankly, I had no idea these Hexbugs would be such a big hit at this party!

This Spring,  Hexbug introduced Hexbug Nano’s that are packaged in a cute Easter egg and comes fully decked out with a pair of little bunny ears. This limited edition HEXBUG Nano is available at select Radio Shacks, RadioShack.com and specialty stores for only $4.99.

I was given enough Hexbug Nano’s for each child as well as the Nano Spiral Starter Set. Putting together the Spiral Starter Set was very easy and as soon as I pulled out the Hexbugs and the kids each chose their own, they were so enthralled with the Hexbugs that the adults were able to enjoy themselves as well!

The Hexbugs are battery operated and as soon as you turn them on, they start vibrating and moving. It kind of caught all the kids off guard and they all started giggling. When one child had enough nerve to place the Hexbug on the Spiral Starter Set, the game was on! The kids were making up their own games as they went along:

• Whose Hexbug would go down to the next level the quickest
• Whose Hexbug would be the first to fall off
• Whose Hexbug was the fastest

I could not keep track of all the different games they were playing. Although food and snacks were provided, the kids really didn’t want to have anything to do with the food…They were too busy playing with their Hexbugs!

For sure Hexbugs get a thumbs up from me and the party was a blast. But the true statement of how popular the Hexbugs are come from one of the kids, Ricky. He said, “I am taking my birthday money to the store to get some more of these (referring to the Hexbugs)!
