L.O.L. Surprise! Dolls Hide within Paper Balls & Recyclable Packaging
Laura McQuarrie — February 18, 2022 — Eco
L.O.L. Surprise! dolls are meant to be unwrapped, layer by layer, to offer kids plenty of surprises, and now this activity can be done in a more sustainable way than before thanks to an all-new paper ball and eliminated plastic.
As well as investing in sustainable solutions for the toy industry, the brand is devoted to inspiring critical thinking, creativity skills and mindfulness and dismantling gender stereotypes.
Before L.O.L. Surprise! introduced paper as a substitute to plastic blind bag packing, the brand set up an ongoing recycling partnership with Terracycle in 2019 across several regions globally so that fans can easily recycle L.O.L. Surprise! packaging. Now, kids get to enjoy the same surprise-filled unboxing experience as ever but in a way that teaches them to invest more care in the environment.
