Don't kids tend to scream too much as it is :?: The last thing I would do is encourage a kid to scream inside while I'm inside

I think that's a very dumb idea.

Kids will love it.

Aunties/uncles/grandparents/family friends/non-resident parents will buy it.

(Resident) parents (and resident older siblings) will hate it.

Twas ever thus though, there's always been toys which are loud and garish and annoying which follow that pattern.

This should be posted in the "Bad Ideas" thread.

Just looking at it is enough to make some people scream, I imagine. It's ugly.

The toys look cute and all, but kids NEED to learn to use their "indoor voices". Even when they're outside.

Yeah that's why I said - it's for dad/mum to get when it's dad's/mum day with the kid whose got divorced parents. Or grandparents whose kids were annoying to get their grandkid to wind up their kid. Or aunt/uncle who wants to wind up their sibling.

I had stuff like that as a kid. My dad used to buy all this trash which I liked cos I was a kid and it was noisy and or messy and my mum had to put up with it. If there was a toy which was cheap tat but I wanted, I asked dad for it.

Either Hasbro hates parents, or they created Yellies for people to give as presents to the kids of parents that *they* hate. :twisted:
