What's the Recent Unicorn Craze All About?
Ask a Question
Humans have been fascinated with unicorns for centuries. Now theyβre all over cosmetics, pool floaties, and bagels. Whatβs driving our current obsession?

I find it crazy they seemed to pop up everywhere and so many people are obsessed. Could understand if it was a new thing but as you say theyβve been around for centuries

I have to admit ive wondered this too. I dont have kids but guessed the parents got caught up in the craze but could never understand why

I tried (and failed) to get hold of a limited edition Unicorn Ritter Sport in 2020. The were exclusive to Wilko. I hope they make another reappearance this year.

Imnotcheap all the young girls seem to be obsessed with them!

Iβve got a little girl and I refuse to get her anything unicorn, my friends little girl had a Aliceband with a unicorn horn on it and it looked extremely rude!

hrdaniels1980 oops! That's terrible! oh dear, oh dear, I'm speechless!!

Aliceband with a unicorn horn on it!- What a total waste of money. Stick an upside down ice cream cone on her head, you'll hardly notice the difference

Unicorns are has-beens.
Camels got the hump.
Llamas are where it's at.
There are llama leggings, llama face masks, llama socks, llama party plates and llama mugs, llama rugs, llama tea towels, llama lunch boxes, Boppi llama pets, even Unicorns vs Llamas Monopoly...
I'm now betting big on Giraffes

I think itβs all down to marketing. It is a way of encouraging people to buy a new set of bedding for their child or something equally unnecessary.

The unicorn craze has been going a few years now. My daughter was one of the first, she then decided to change to sloths. The idea was a trip to Costa Rica but due to Covid this has been put on hold.

So imo itβs just pop culture yeah. But like if there was snoopy Merch (which there is more of nowadays)Iβd most likely be all over it because I love snoopy and as much as the peanuts gang have been out for years...products havenβt always been avail or itβs been select in what you can purchase. If it makes someone happy why not eh

I havent noticed a craze recently, but I know it usually happens around summer time ever few years. Mind you, I donβt blame anyone fir liking unicorns - itβs all happiness and colour

Not gonna lie....I'm a massive unicorn lover don't know what started my craze but i am totally addicted. Everything unicorn i see, i want....my bank balance doesn't like unicorns though
