Luck and fun for Tiger tots at Toy Kingdom

Adorable tiger plushies are available at Toy Kingdom in celebration of the Lunar New Year which is on February 1, 2022. These toys are believed to bring comfort, joy, good luck, laughter, passion and adventure as you snuggle and hug them.

These adorable and colorful plush tigers with stripes and sparkling eyes, as well as cute and
fluffy Kawaii Tigers are perfect gifts for tiger tots who are born with all the charm and optimism they will need to navigate the ebb and flow of fortune in life. They possess big hearts, and naturally dispense love and charity to those people and interests that capture their imagination – from family and pets to the needy and downtrodden of the world.



Charismatic and bright, little tigers are ultimate optimists and will always bounce back from any
setback, much like Tigger in Winnie the Pooh. Their insatiable curiosity about life will lead them into
more than their fair share of adventures, sometimes resulting in scrapes, but you can’t keep a good cat down.

According to Chinese Feng Shui, Tigers are natural born leaders, always looking to bring folks together, put their brilliant ideas into practice, and ensure that equality reigns.

Welcome the Year of the Tiger with Toy Kingdom’s collection of fluffy and adorable tiger inspired plushies that will surely bring luck and lots of fun into your homes. Get them via Toy Kingdom’s Call to Deliver services at 0917.5578797 and have a personal shopper assist you and your kids to virtually select toys. Check out the latest toys at www.toykingdom.com.ph.
