# Fairytale Shot Glasses Little Kids Themed Stories on Glasses for Grown-Up Kids By Shelby Lee Walsh | Published 2009-05-23 | Business Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fairytale-shot-glasses References: [fishseddy](http://www.fishseddy.com/browse.cfm/2,168.html) The traditional fairytale reads, “Mary had a little lamb”, but with these childrens’ story-themed shot glasses, it should instead read “Mary had a little too much to drink.” For only $5.50 a piece, you can get your party on with none other than [Little Boy Blue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-people-collector-set), [Little Red Riding Hood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/story-dream-machine) and [Jack and Jill](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brown-forman) (and you can bet after a bunch of these shots, they will be falling down hills). Fairytales are for kids. Drinking from fairytale-themed shot glasses are for big kids! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.9/10 - Popularity: 33% | Activity: 16% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Business](https://www.trendhunter.com/business) > [Retail](https://www.trendhunter.com/retail) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Themed Shot Glasses:** Opportunity for themed shot glasses with designs inspired by various stories and characters, appealing to grown-up audiences. - **Storytelling Products:** The trend of incorporating storytelling elements into consumer products, like shot glasses, to create a unique and engaging experience for customers. - **Nostalgic Partyware:** Rising demand for nostalgic and whimsical partyware that brings back childhood memories and adds an element of fun to adult gatherings. ### Who This Affects Most - **Consumer Goods:** Consumer goods companies can capitalize on the trend of themed shot glasses by creating a diverse range of designs based on popular stories and characters. - **Hospitality and Entertainment:** Bars, clubs, and entertainment venues can leverage storytelling products like fairytale-themed shot glasses to enhance the customer experience and drive customer engagement. - **Home Decor and Giftware:** Home decor and giftware industries can tap into the nostalgia and whimsy trend by offering a variety of fairytale-themed shot glasses as unique and novelty gift items. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Equitable Fairy Tale Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fair-tales-by-odeabank.md) - [Cream-Topped Shooters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baby-lager.md) - [Festive Tree-Inspired Mugs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/christmas-tree-mugs.md) - [Tequila Shot Glass Boards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tequila-shot-glass-board.md) - [Fairytale Mystery Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-fairytale-files-interactive-murder-mysteries.md) - [Deceptive Stout Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schneaky-espresso-martini.md) - [Chocolate Martini Glasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kahlua-espresso-martony-glass.md) - [Pricey Waffle Cone Shots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/waffle-cone-shot.md) - [Absinthe Milkshakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adult-milkshakes.md)
