More kids stuff

I hate Jocas. Just when I thought I could sleep, she adds this download to her site. It's a 'guess the children's programme from the pictures' quiz and is very annoying. And addictive - I challenge anyone to get them all without referring to friends.

She's also reminded me of Frosty the Snowman - the slushy making machine for kids that only succeeded in turning ice cubes into ice chips that then, if you added some nasty powder to, turned into an even nastier drink. And children + blades strong enough to crush ice + ice = danger + mess? Which might explain why the ice only got cut into chips rather than 'snow'.

Now the best kids toy I never had was the Play-do Barber Shop. I still want one (and a Lego Pirate Ship but I think that's about £80 which is too much to spend on nostalgia).

Oh, and Fuzzy Felt rocked in a big way.

Now it would probably have to animate/explode/talk when you put it on the board for kids to be interested.
