Commenter Flashback Proves That Monchhichi is Still Soft & Cuddly

Posted by Aaron Burgess

Oh, the things we do for our beloved commenters: Sarah's Calico Critters post the other day triggered a flashback from Babble commenter Shannon, whose mention of Monchhichis sent yours truly into a search for the thumb-sucking Japanese monkeys from so many of our childhoods. Is that a word, "childhoods"? Anyway, we didn't have to look too far: Between them, Amazon and the Monchhichi Outlet stock more of the soft-and-cuddly critters than we'd ever know what to do with. (Pictured: the illegally cute Bebichhichi in Blue Overall.) Thanks, Shannon! Now we can't get that theme song out of our heads:

Any other toys from your past you're dying to share with your kids? Nostalgia trips begin in the comments.

I had about a dozen of those when I was little.  I'm buying one for my son right away!

I can't believe you went and found them!  Thank you so much!  I think I'm going to have to go ahead and order some for myself!
