It’s alive!

Weird-looking monster dolls are all the rage, but if you can’t decide which one to buy, Great Gizmos has a solution.

The new Make Your Own Monster Doll kit lets kids get creative in a ‘Frankenstein’s monster’ sort of way, sticking on felt patches to bring their unique creature to life.

No sewing is required – you just iron the felt eyes, mouths and accessories onto the pre-made body wherever you see fit. The result should (hopefully) be truly monstrous.

The Make Your Own Monster Doll kit is suitable for children aged three and up (provided you help with the ironing, of course) and is priced around £9.99.
