If you’re a child of the 80s or 90s, chances are you may have grown up with a virtual pet of your own. After experiencing your Tamagotchi dying while you were at school or attempting to expand your Furby’s vocabulary, you may be wondering if there is still a place for interactive pets in a modern technological world.
Fast forward 30 years, however, and the virtual and interactive pets that we know and love have certainly evolved, growing hugely in popularity to become highly engaging interactive toys for children young and old. From role-playing games to feeding, grooming and in some cases even taking them to the toilet, these intelligent and interactive toys make great companions for children.
