Fingerlings are exciting new interactive pets from WowWee and we were recently given the opportunity to try one out. We also have a Fingerling to give away to one lucky reader. Check out the Rafflecopter at the end of the post to be in with a chance of winning. You can see how we got on with our own adorable baby monkey, Boris, in the unboxing video below:
Fingerling Unboxing
The Verdict
Boris fascinated Biggest and Littlest alike. It took a little while for us to get to grips with the different actions needed in order to make him react in different ways but, once we had played for a little while, we could make him do all kinds of things. Also, in a way, that added to the fun as we spent time experimenting to find the best methods to get him to do things.
Considering the very reasonable price and small size of the Fingerlings, it is amazing that they are so interactive. Boris reacts to having his head scratched and will fall asleep when you cradle him. He also moves his head and makes noises when hung upside down. You really do get a sophisticated little robot pet for just £14.99. We think Fingerlings could be a huge hit with children aged 5 and upwards, particularly if they like animals. Littlest adored Boris and she was mesmerised by the fact that he responded to her but she is a little small for them yet.
You can find out more about Fingerlings in the video below:

We are a family who are fond of animals, one of which is monkeys. Apparently a Great-Grandfather had a chimpanzee many years ago. Stories of that chimpanzee’s antics have been passed down generations of the family. We all seem to be fascinated by watching monkeys on tv, and on visits to zoos.
Fingerlings look cute, Finn is the finest.
My daughter would absolutely love one, shes animal obsessed and loves little things like this, i’m guessing shes not seen them yet as I am sure she will be asking me for one.

We are most definitely a monkey household. Last Christmas my daughter wrote to Santa asking for just one thing. A pink monkey. When the Santa at her School Christmas Fair asked her what she wanted for Christmas, she narrowed her almost 4yr old eyes and in a steely voice said, “You should know that already”. We need a Fingerlings monkey!
I’d love to win as I know my granddaughter would love one 🙂
i know my nephew would go crazy for one if these. He loves toys that respond to him
i just think they are too cute! my youngest nephew is loving monkety toys right now
Zoe is a super toy as she is unisex and a perfect size for little hands. I always find that children favour small toys like these that they can hold themselves.
