where do I find these?! my 3 year old asked Santa for one. I'm totally stumped..doesn't even have to be a chocolate one, the youtube videos have the ones that just have toys in them too.. help!
-
Following! My LO is obsessed.
May just make my own. We have done it before with little things around the house. Why do they love those so much??
-
The chocolate Kinder eggs are difficult to find since they're illegal in the US. Oddly enough I get them at a local Mexican grocery store. The kids love them! Just limited varieties available. I might grab a bunch next time for stocking stuffers, and I can send you a few too if you're interested.

I read this article recently that might help: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/americanized-kinder-surprise-chocolate-egg-approved-fda-article-1.1290804
-
I saw the chocolate ones at World Market on Friday.
-
@yin: I thought they were illegal too.
-
the Kinder eggs are illegal and ive read there are big fines if you try to bring them into the us. but i have heard you can get them at mexican supermarkets as well. they do sell those shopkins baskets at target just like the funtoyzcollector opens tho!
-
I had no idea they are illegal in US! My German coworker brings them for LO when she visits.
-
@sorrycharlie: where are you located? they are illegal but a lot of the asian supermarkets here in ny have them. they're about $2.39 each.
-
I've purchased the kinder surprise eggs in Mexico and in Canada
-
Different brand because of the issues cited above, but my local grocery store (Meijer - regional thing so most of you probably don't have one) had them with the Christmas candy.
-
@wonderstruck: just found some there this morning! Ours just had Frozen, what ones did yours have?
-
My son makes his own, lol. He has a bunch of those plastic easter eggs and he puts random stuff in there.
If he likes surprise eggs, he might like blind bags. Those you can find in toy stores.
-
@Bao: Frozen and Star Wars! So DH got some too, haha.
-
Why are they illegal, just out of interest? Every corner shop and supermarket sells them over here
-
We bought some from eBay last year for Easter.
-
@Bubbles: Kinder eggs are illegal because you can't put an inedible toy inside an edible object in the US. The plastic eggs with toys inside are OK.
I saw some superhero eggs at Farm and Fleet this weekend. It's a store regional to Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa I think. I plan to go back and pick a few up for E's stocking.
-
I am making my own. I have lots of plastic Easter eggs leftover so plan on putting little toys in a there (shopkins and things for Barbie).
-
I've seen similar in the stocking stuffer section at Target. Or maybe http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00BFNEC8W/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?qid=1448305402&sr=8-5&pi=AC_SX110_SY165&keywords=surprise+eggs&dpPl=1&dpID=51w1x%2BMt9TL&ref=plSrch

@Bubbles: I was wondering the same thing!
-
We got our kinder eggs in Canada. We have a small British shop that sells them on the DL too.
-
@wonderstruck: NO WAY! I Love Kinder eggs. Running off to look at our Meijer!
-
@sorrycharlie: I thought of this thread after I found chocolate eggs at target! I'm in SoCal so not sure if it's regional but they were in the Easter section! Not exactly kinder but it looks similar. And I may have bought a bunch for dds Easter basket...
-
@kodybear: oh wow! lo would love, I hope the target here in the northeast has them!!
