A Guide to Taking the Perfect Selfie!

by Jada, August 29, 2014
Who knew that taking a photograph of yourself would become such a massive craze? In fact, it’s become such a big deal that the word ‘selfie’ has now been added to the Oxford dictionary. So how can you get in on the act?


Here’s a simple guide to taking the perfect selfie…
Wow, what an amazing time we've had during the last 16 days revealing each figure from Series 11 with you all! We're sad to see the reveal over but also equally excited as it means all of you can now go and purchase Series 11 Moshling's yourself as from today - the 29th of August, Series 11 Moshi Monsters are out in toy stores and supermarkets nationwide!


This series concentrates on Free the Moshlings which has all been a bit of a secret up until today! Click on the link to follow the Free the Moshlings link and help rescue the Moshlings from Doctor Strangeglove! All you have to do is play the game and you could be in with the chance to win a day as a Moshi Monster Toy Apprentice!


Name: Weegul
Rarity: Common.


Weegul the Wobbly Dobbly is a demanding, persuasive and spoilt Moshling who is fangtastically cute but goopendously demanding, especially if she doesn't get her own way! When Weegul is not asking passers-by to plop glacĂ© gooberries on their wafery horns, they're insisting on having their cushions plumped up and their backs scratched - not very demanding ay!?


Weegul loves anything and everything however, she's a bit contradicting because she doesn't like walking and chocolate chips!


That's it now folkes, the last Moshling to be revealed from Series 11. It's been a pleasure to be able to be part of yet another reveal, and hopefully we'll be able to share Series 12 with you, whenever that may be!

Please don't forget to check out the special Free The Moshlings website, and remember packs are out now in stores nationwide starting from as little as £2 for two Moshlings!

We're trying to slowly wean ourselves back into a routine in time for the school runs here in the Unique Young Mum household, if we're not naturally waking up early to the birds outside, we're sure getting up all right with the sounds of birds on our alarm clock singing to us!


This series concentrates on Free the Moshlings which is all a bit of a big secret at the moment! The website will be officially live on the Series 11 release date which is 29th August, in the meantime make sure to check back here every day for a daily release of another brand new Moshling!


Name: Freddy
Rarity: Common.


Freddy is a devoted, boisterous and protective Seb-Swaddling Guzzler who is meant to deliver the mail, but he can't actually fit many letters in his bulging beak because he is always finding strange little critters called Sebs to take care of! If you spot Freddy without a Seb in his beak, look under his cap where you'll be sure to find one snuggling underneath!


Freddy loves sand sculptures (do you reckon he's seen the ones on Weymouth beach?) and fish heads, but might be seen with his beak up to ghost pirates and disposable diapers because he doesn't like them!



Be sure to check back tomorrow for day 16 - the final and reveal day of the Moshi Monster Series 11 Countdown Reveal where I will be revealing the last brand new Moshling from Series 11 to you all!
Although I don't like the feeling of being cold, the wet weather and the increasing price of heating cost, I do love the colder months for the home cooked winter food! Home made shepherds pie, roast dinners, and of course out comes the slow cooker to cook all the stews and casseroles!

Name: Casey
Rarity: Common.


Casey is a talented, nitpicky and pretentious Croaky Cook who spends so much time shouting, he can hardly speak, let alone croak! Yelling is essential to Casey, who's in charge of a busting kitchen, and this masterful Moshling creates some of the finest meals in Monsto City, including the legendary Casserole au Corak, topped with a single strand of the finest Oobla Doobla in the land!


Casey loves egg whisk and Moshlings who shout 'Yes, Chef!', however his shouting may turn into screaming if he comes across frozen food or dirty surfaces!


Be sure to check back tomorrow for day 15 of the Moshi Monster Series 11 Countdown Reveal where I will be revealing the second from last brand new Moshling from Series 11 to you all!
After such a long car journey yesterday, seven hours in total to get back home in Reading from Cornwall, me and Spud spent much of our day today indoors, we watched a few movies, including Greese, one of our favourite musicals, and spent the rest of the day singing and dancing around!

Name: Popov
Rarity: Ultra Rare!


Popov the Dancing Dinkinov is a silly, surly and musical Moshling who can boogie like there's no tomorrow. When Popov is not backflipping over haystacks, juggling toy hammers or performing traditional Dinkinov dances he loves feasting on giant bowls of goo-lash washed down with neat vobble-ade!


Popov loves battyfish eggs and fiddling on the roof, but isn't a fan of Happy Statues and decadence.

I'll be one of the first to admit to having the heating on during the summer, although it shouldn't be happening, I'm too much of a cold person to be sat there shivering! No amount of cardigans and extra layers will be keeping us warm, so we've been having snuggly nights in with our hot water bottles and nice warm radiators in the SUMMER!

Name: Snuggy
Rarity: Common


Snuggy is a loyal, warm, playful, ultra cute, super snuggly and surprisingly shocking Cuddly Wibble who's purple onesie is charged with static electricity which she uses to power mini heaters in her bobble hat, and of course to charge up her phone! Snuggly can mainly be found in Tribbledown, but do check your sock draw as she's been known to take naps in those!


Snuggy loves hotel slippers and fluffy snugglers, but may give an electric shock out to dyed bears and sunbathers as she dislikes sunbathing!

We're heading home from our holiday tomorrow, and although we will be sad to leave my mum - Spud's nanny, my little sister - Spud's auntie, my step dad and their cat, we will be glad to see the back of all the weird looking bugs we've spotted in the back garden! If it's not some weird looking spider, it's a weird looking critter, just typing this post sends shivers down my spine, yuk!

Name: Mitzi
Rarity: Ultra Rare



Mitzi the Clockwork Crawly is a captivating, social and humble Moshling who is pretty relaxed but most forgetful when it comes to remembering where she's left her keys - the ones poking out of her head! Unless this rather cute little Moshi gets wound up every morning then she can't scuttle to the shops, or disco dance or hum lightning fast melodies in a piercing, high pitched voice!


Mitzi loves texting and whackcurrant lollies, but doesn't like blue light bulbs and sticky paper - I wonder why!?

We're currently on holiday in Cornwall at the moment, well actually, technically we're at my mum's (Spud's grandmother), who has been introduced to all 16 of the brand new Moshlings I should add and all we've seen down here so far is surfers and skateboarders! To be fair, I am a city girl, and it's the city noise I'm use too!

Name: Lips
Rarity: Common



Lips is a stroppy, radical and raucous Duck-Billed Brattypus who is never seen without his skateboard!! Lips can travel at incredible speed using his tail as a makeshift propeller and that's just as well because this daring little Moshling loves setting up ramps and performing some heart stopping sick tricks!



Lips loves stair railes and grip tapes, but doesn't like crazy paving and Bonkers Whizzlings!

I've been dealing with a deluded customer service agent on the phone for the last half hour, I decided due to the holding song I've been played repeatedly in the ear constantly that I'd crack on with today's character reveal, only to discover this one is quite deluded too! I can't win can I!

Name: King Brian
Rarity: Ultra Rare!



King Brian is a regal, deluded and snooty Dandy Lion who loves hanging out on cardboard thrones at Barmy Swami Jungle! King Brian has convinced himself he is a descendant of Emperor Meow, the legendary Regal Roarer who once ruled over King Brian's favourite jungle!


King Brian loves wearing Twistmas (yes, Twistmas!) cracker crowns, shaking paws, tinfoil medals and waving it strangers but doesn't like commoners and press intrusion!

I'm not pregnant but you'd think I was with the epic craving I can't shift right now - gypsy tart! My mum (Spud's grandmother) makes one of the best gypsy tarts I've ever tasted (and that's a high number, believe me!) and luckily for me, we're currently at her house right now, wish me luck on this daughterly persuasion!

Name: Plumpty
Rarity: Common



Plumpty the Proper Pud is a old-fasioned, straitlaced but honest Moshling who can be found living in her old converted mixing bowl home near Knickerbocker Nook! Proper by name, proper by nature this amazingly pruding Moshling disapprove of anything new or remotely out of the ordinary"



Plumpty loves old-fashion values and cuddles, but can be seen crumbling to pieces when it comes to spoon lickers and paper plates as she is not a fan of them at all!


Be sure to check back tomorrow for day nine of the Moshi Monster Series 11 Countdown Reveal where I should be revealing a brand new Moshling to you all!
I've been sat here for the last 20 minutes trying to decide how to start this post, I was originally going to start by saying how it was a week ago today that the Series 11 Countdown Reveal began as it's day seven (already!). When actually a week would be tomorrow which is Thursday, but in a week there's seven days!? Ahh, I'm so confused, just like today's Moshling it seems! Enjoy!

Name: Darwin
Rarity: Common



Dawin is a cheery, dim-witted and hesitant Dithering Dodo who likes walking around in circles in Frostipop Glacier! It's hardly surprising to hear Dithering Dodos are so rare because they can't decide if they are coming or going! Actually, these incredibly indecisive Moshlings can't even decide if they can fly, like Dawin, who is often seen dithering around towering ice ledges, preparing to jump, before changing her mind - again!


Darwin likes beak polish and cosy beanies, but may start pecking at sailors and can be seen holding her beak up at the smell of stuffing!
