HEART EYES is back, and we’re here to dazzle you with all of this month’s best new releases!
As the season changes from winter to spring, we know that you’ll be feeling energized and invigorated as you ditch your puffy coats for jean jackets and hot cocoa for iced coffee. Since springtime is perfect for fresh starts, our list is filled with new hobbies to try (like rock collecting and beat-mixing), a dreamy mood board to help you kickstart your goals, and amazing new skincare products to give your skin the refresh it deserves!
Our favs this month include LEGO VIDIYO, which helps you create your own awesome music videos, some super cute Hello Kitty boots, and a completely uncringey book about puberty – yeah, you heard us right!
From a Pusheen board game to irresistible Lucky Charms treats, here are the 13 things we think will give you HEART EYES this month!
If you spend your days learning TikTok dances and making lip-sync videos with your friends, you’re going to LOVE this innovative new release from LEGO! LEGO VIDIYO puts you in the creator seat, allowing you to produce, direct, and star in your own music videos!
To start, you’ll need a BeatBox set, which doubles as the stage once scanned into the app. These sets include everything you need to kick off your VIDIYO experience, including a super fun minifig, (like Party Llama, Candy Mermaid, or HipHop Robot), 14 BeatBits, which are vibrantly colored squares that unlock special video effects and silly sounds once scanned into the app, as well as 2 special BeatBits.
Once you have everything built just the way you like it, scan your creation into the app and get ready to get mixing! Add music from a list of over 60 popular songs, add everything from confetti showers to DJs scratches, and bring your minifigs to life as they do silly dance moves before your eyes. You can even jump into the scene and dance alongside them! When your masterpiece is complete, you can share your creations with your friends on the VIDIYO app, and new tracks will be added every week, so you can always be creating at your very best!
We can all agree that puberty is pretty much the worst, but this super-inclusive new book helps break it all down in a hilarious and awesome way, helping you understand your body and answer all of your most burning questions!

If you’re anything like us, you’re always ready for a new release from Petite ‘n Pretty, and this time around, they’re giving your skincare routine the ultimate glow up!

Sorry, McDonald’s, this year we’re trading in our Shamrock Shakes for these magically delicious new Lucky Charms treats!
For this month only, you’ll be able to find lots of luck at your local Cold Stone. Choose from the Ice Cream at the End of the Rainbow ice cream or the Sprinkled With Charms shake. (We know, it’s so hard to pick just one!)
The Lucky Charms flavored ice cream is a soft green color that features the iconic Lucky Charms marshmallows, whipped cream, and gold glitter mixed in. Have it in a leprechaun green waffle cone or bowl.
The Sprinkled With Charms Shake is similar to the ice cream creation, but instead of the whipped cream, marshmallows, and gold glitter being mixed in, they top the shake, beaming like the tasty treasure it is!

We’re totally here for this seriously amazing slime! You can snag a single one-color pack for just a few bucks, or a 3-pack featuring purple, turquoise, and pink!
Pusheen’s very first card game has arrived, and she needs YOUR help planning the purrfect weekend!
Gather up your BFFs or your favorite family members for a totally charming game night. Just like the iconic gray kitty herself, Pusheen’s Purrfect Pick Card Game is perfectly pastel, totally chill, and ultra adorable. You’ll start off by choosing the ultimate weekend hangout spot from the double-sized board. Will you cozy up inside Pusheen’s house for lazy weekend vibes, or take a stroll through the park for outdoor fun? As you play, you’ll need to gather up Pusheen’s friends and weekend essentials to help you snack, lounge, and take snapshots of your meow-gical moments.

If you can’t get enough ’90s throwbacks or underdog stories, then you’ll love The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers!

Now, years later, The Mighty Ducks don’t just fly – they’re a top-tier team. Despite their scrappy roots, they’ve become super competitive and elite over the years, but being the best, kids dream of playing for them, just like Brady does in this new series.
When he’s cut from the team, his mom tries to cheer him up by helping him create his own team and even calling in Coach Bombay, the Ducks original coach, to help inspire them. The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers has something for everyone, a little bit of sports, a whole lot of heart, and a team full of spirited kids you’ll love rooting for!
Hello Kitty? More like Hello CUTE!
We’re always swooning over a fresh pair of Docs, but this new Sanrio collab might be one of our all-time favs! In this new collection, their classic black boots feature a bright red lace-up ribbon and a Hello Kitty bow charm that dangles from the laces with super-cute flair. Printed on the boots are neon outlines of Hello Kitty and some of her best pals throughout the ages, like Batdz-Maru, Keroppi, My Melody, and more!
