Why cant you just stick the doll in a box padded with newspapers and wrap the box up?


I was listening to a conversation on the radio about the brats dolls. They were going on and on about how they look slutty and also look like miniature prostitutes

But the good news is:  When is the last time you got packaging like that with anything broken inside it?  

Yeah it's a pain, but I'll take intact products with more fuss to get to them.

The more painful issue is Some Assembly Required.  The worst Christmas I ever had was assembling three 10-speed bikes from JC Penny.  I thought I knew bikes, but three 10s were a whole lot different than the single one-speed Schwinn I grew up on.

Winner!

I don't. I spoil her as much as I think I can get away with :)
Of course, she pays for it....even at 8, with privlidges come responsibilities.

Books and clothes and interactive learning games for the computer is about all kids at the age of 6 and up need is my opinion.I mean hey i know some of these toy designers go to years of college so they can be good toy designers when in reality that same toy has about 5 mins. of actual spotlight in today's culture and is usually forgotten in a moment, where as a Book is good for a life time and clothes shelter from the storm.

feeding thier heads with knowledge is the Key.


You've obviously never seen my daughters bookshelves or we wouldn't have this discussion. :) She reads 2 grades (the school says, I say more) above her level, and one of her favorite trips is to the bookstore or library. These are our regular, non- Christmas things for her. Christmas is different.
