Cute? Cuddly? Adorable? No thanks.
Is it just me, or are baby toys just too damn cute to have in one’s house nowadays? I’m not into the cuddly-wuddly cutesy-wootsy baby crap found in most big-box retailers and supercenters, but I don’t want to deprive my child of the wonderful tactile landscape of plushy, furry, fuzzy things to glom onto in the middle of the night.
Thanks to babble.com’s Patti, I don’t have to worry about that anymore. Patti mentioned the very-cool toyvault.com where discerning, demented parents (such as myself) can buy all the fuzzy toys they can get their hands on, without the cuddly crap getting in the way.
My personal favorite is Mothra of the Godzilla collection. Having these furry little radioactive monsters from Japan stocking the crib of our new infant gives us at least one more advantage: It makes Blue Oyster Cult’s song Godzilla apropos for a lullaby.
Oh no, they say hes got to go
Go go godzilla, yeah
Oh no, there goes tokyo
Go go godzilla, yeah
