Sisters Giselle and Olympia are living every child’s dream as toy testers for Big W.

The Keilor girls are part of Big W’s toy squad, testing toys ahead of the store’s annual toy sale which launched last week.

Their mum Danielle Koulouriotis, said she is a big fan of Big W and was approached by them for the girls to be involved.

“Obviously, I knew the girls would jump at the chance of being toy testers,” she said.

“The girls were very excited. They already have a huge collection of toys at home, but I knew they would be over the moon by the idea of toy testing even more to help BIG W get an idea of some of the favourites in time for the sale.

“I think it’s safe to say, for all of us it was like being in Disneyland. They had so many options of things to play with and were so happy for days after.”

Ms Koulouriotis said Giselle and Olympia loved dolls and playsets, along with some more unusual toys.

“They are big on dolls and playsets, so it was no surprise that they took a big liking to the Tinkers doll Set.

“They looked after [the doll] by first making her dinner, which involved chopping plastic vegetables before then giving her a bath.

“They have never seen Star Wars, but they were taken with the baby yoda and thought him very cute as his ears and eyes both moved. [They] looked after him in a similar fashion.”
