TODDLER TOYS 101....Welcome to Class.....

I decided to make a mini "class" if you will of some of Bug's favorite toys. I mention them all the time in her Blog so to give people a visual while reading here are some of the regulars.......




This is "Mini Blah" He is only about 4 inches tall and he's supposed to be a finger puppet. He's Bug's nighttime companion along with Marco the polar bear. He got his name because he looks like a miniature version of baby Einstein's "Bard" character. (We didn't know Bard's name initially, he just came on the screen and said "BLAH!!!!" So, we just called him Blah for the longest time. David will call him Bard now but I still call him Blah.....) We have about 3 or 4 Mini Blahs but I couldn't tell you where they all are.....




This is "B" and "Bear." They participate daily in Bug's activities. (I should make a note it has been suggested that Bear arrived at our house by some very suspicious means. It is speculated that he was swiped from Nanny and Papa's house. This activity was carried out under Dee-Dee's watch so neither David nor I can take responsibility for the bear-napping; if indeed it was a bear-napping........)




This is poor innocent "Lambie" who sometimes gets more beat up than I would like to see; but I can only assume it means he is well loved.




The famous Fisher Price SUV with both Momma and Baby in their proper positions in the car. Generally she puts them in the right way. Sometimes though, she lets the baby drive.




Ah, the Infamous "FatCat" FatCat has long been an important member of Bug's posse. FatCat was Bug's first true stuffed animal love, followed closely by PinkPig, and FatHen.




This is "Baby" Bug hasn't named her Cabbage Patch Kid yet. I look forward to the day when she names all of her toys. :)



This is Bitty Baby. She's the one who usually ends up with serious headaches after playtime. And, who routinely has her eyes poked at.



Bug's ponies. Well, some of Bug's ponies. She has quite a few more but these tend to be her favorites. The blue one is Whistle Wishes and the pink one is Swirlypop. (they are both generation 3 my little ponies) next to Swirlypop is Milkweed (a generation 1 newborn my little pony) and in front of Whistle Wishes is one of the new Ponyville ponies. The other items are random generation 3 my little pony accessories that she carries around with her. The brushes in particular go everywhere.





Bug's My Little Pony Scooter Brigade. (there's one missing....I believe it is in the kitchen....)




"Maow" the pink stuffed kitty. She found this one recently upstairs in her stuffed animal basket and decided to bring it downstairs. (It could also have been dropped through the railing of the loft for all I know.......)



Larry the Cucumber. He was originally my Larry the Cucumber but I can learn to share. He's one of my favorite characters from the Veggie Tales series, along with the peas......



Ah Ha!! Fluffy Bunny!!!! This is Evil Bug's right hand, uh, fluffy thing. David got him for her for Easter. He's fluffy and rolly polly. What's not to love?





Terrance and Phillip from "South Park." Bug's Auntie Heather crocheted these for me for Christmas this past year. (We're pretty big SP fans here.) Bug stole them from me. They make occasional appearance from time to time. I included them because I wanted to show how talented Bug's Auntie Heather is. (You can also check out her own Blog in the links section now. It's a Blog about her crocheting)

Thanks for the excellent primer! I think Fat Cat is my favorite.

Why do ponies need scooters? This bothers me. Hopefully they're electric and solar powered. I would be very sad if our current carbon cycle crisis is being partially driven by such blatantly redundant fossil fuel burning.

I'm not sure why they need scooters....They do have helmets and whatnot that they wear as well so i can only assume hasbro would be promoting an environmentally sound and safety cautious activity. :) But then again, they are plastic ponies driving plastic scooters so, how environmentally sound is that? LMAO :)

You can't tell from the picture but "fluffy bunny" is bigger or as big as Evelyn. She can't get her arms all the way round him ... barely even half way.

And, she neglected to mention that Evelyn now has her own stroller and has begun wheeling "bear" around in it.
