Happy holidays! Here’s an early little gift for you!
It’s the 2006 Littlest Pet Shop Chihuahua tree ornament! Enjoy this obscure lps merch!
(Also sidenote. If you or anyone has any good recourses for random lps merch like this please tell me! I’ve been looking for archives or databases and can’t find anything other than lists of the pets. I’m not too sure where I should be looking so any help is appreciated.)
woa ... thank you !!

i like your pfp! are the eye colors intentionally the same as the aro flag? 0_0
Nope! Not intentionally, but that is cool, thank you for pointing it out! (I'm not aro or ace but they're still cool people)
My pfp is actually some old official LPS art- I got it from a friend(ish) who is hoping to preserve as much LPS art and 'obscure' merch as possible: https://www.pinterest.co.uk/elkfarms/_created/
I also attached the full image as it's pretty far down on their pinterest, in case you wanted it.

On this episode of Snackpoint Charlie we are joined in the studio by the esteemed multimedia artist Mr. Brian Dewan. Will he play some long-lost tracks from his record collection, read an obscure text, or dazzle us with his acapella Captain Beefheart impression? ANSWER: all of the above! “There There” host Alanna Medlock rounds out the evening with spontaneous interjections as only she knows how. Live on air Wednesday, April 19 from 10pm to midnight on WGXC, 90.7 FM in the Hudson Valley and Podcast NOW on WGXC.org, the Wave Farm smartphone app, the podcast aggregator of your choice, or direct download below

Littlest Petshop Lexibook Learning Laptop!
This was legit SO interesting to research considering there's a manual for it. They are made by Lexibook, a European company that produces technology aimed at kids' entertainment and education. They still produce laptops like these even!
Their goal with the LPS laptop was to teach children spelling, math, and French in English-speaking countries. It also taught French children the same thing but taught English as a second language. They had three little buddies that would accompany their learning, cheeky monkey, sporty dog, and cuddly cat. You could chat to them!
Here's a look at some of the games. This model was made in 2009
Lexibook produced multiple different LPS laptops. Here are some of the others!
This one came with a piano it's so cute. There's a listing for it on Australian Amazon, so it looks like it was always sold there!
I honestly have no clue what LPS University is, I've seen other merch with this (such as a hat).
This one is movie-themed which is pretty cool.
Look at the cute lady bug. There's also an alternate coloring and graphic design version.
The alternate was listed on a German website, I wonder if it was sold there too? It's from 2011
Lexibook created a lot of other LPS technology which I'll post! Let me know if you ever used these, I'd love to hear about them!
