Baby centre
Yes, the baby centre is THE place to be: it is overflowing with all the things we wish but are afraid to ask for (including beautiful young mothers :)
Here go the results of my quest, all suitable for kids under 3 and ranked according to "coolness":
- baby car (a quad that C can ride to create havoc at his parents' place)
- truck (to play with, not to ride; really cool)
- other truck (to play with as well; really cool as well)
- circus car (I don't like the concept of keeping animals locked up for the purpose of our entertainment but the truck is really nice and besides it is filled with little animals)
- Noah's ark (what? do I need to draw a picture? it's a boat and has lots of animals; the good thing is that it does not reproduce the concept of locking up animals for the selfish entertainment of humans, like the evil circus car above; it actually portraits the opposite idea, that of humans working hard to help animals to survive and repopulate the earth... so as to have them reproduce and be able to exploit them once more... well, I am not sure if C will be thinking a lot about these things as he unwraps the presents; anyway all this naturally comes at a slightly higher price)
- animal farm (same as the Noah's ark, just without Noah and without the ark; and adding the selfish exploitation of animals for the purpose of human feed)
- animal domino (a bit lame but still a classic! Comes in 2 sizes, medium and big)
- anti-transpiring and cooling cover for a baby car seat (a stupid present, especially in the eyes of the birthday man; the upturn is that it may actually be, like, useful; ok if you want to butter up the parents)
- little lamps to help you get through the night without fear (I am by principle against this - men should rely on the company of beautiful women for this task - so I did not bother to see how much they would cost)
And that is it.
