About Pandas

The Giant Panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) is found in central and southwestern China. It is a member of the bear family and in the order of carnivores,(which implies meat-eating) although, in its natural state, it eats exclusively bamboo shoots. The giant panda has been impacted heavily by encroaching civilization and is considered an endangered species with probably no more than 1500 individuals living in the wild with about 250 animals living in captivity. It is a docile animal and is not known to attack humans. It is slowly replacing the dragon as China's national symbol.

It is brown and tan with spots, making it almost indistinguishable from the desert floor. It eats ants and can stuff itself with well over a thousand in a day. It drinks water in the inhospitable desert from dew which it collects at night.

Soft Play Posable Octopus Available in Limited Quantity!

ONLY A FEW LEFT IN STOCK!

Our VERY popular posable plastic/rubbery octopus is back in stock, but not for long! Once they are gone, there will be no more until summer. They go out fast enough that we know we're going to be clean out and beseiged with requests that we can't fill for several months. It's not fun, but that's the way it goes. If you want your floating, foam-filled, realistic, floppy, fun, latex-covered octopus with posable tentacles, I suggest you order now!

Another name for this octopus is BENTACLES, because the tentacles bend and stay positioned where you put them.

Floating, Bouncing, Squishy Foam-filled Latex Rubber Puffer Fish!

This fun puffer fish can be used in all sorts of ways to keep you and your kids or grandkids entertained for quite a long time. Let's see - since it floats, you could use it in the pool or bathtub, or even launch it in a lake or ocean, as long as you make sure to capture it again! You can bounce it on the floor (it won't get hurt, and neither will anyone else, but it doesn't behave quite like a real bouncing ball, because it only bounces a few inches off the floor after you throw it). You could play toss-the-fish, or you could enjoy explaining to a young child the wonders of the ocean and the creatures that live there.

What to Do with a Plastic Panda

Laurel just posted some very cute pictures of Teagan in boxes, and in this case he is also showing us how to use . . . TA-DAAAA . . . his soft play PLASTIC PANDA (which, by the way, he can locate in the toy box if you ask him where the panda is . . . so cute; no, I am not a proud grandma).

You can look at the panda and learn that the panda has a FOOT, just like you do. (Or in this case would it be a HAND? Or a foot and a hand?)

You can bi . . . uh . . . I prefer to think that Teagan is thoughtfully giving the panda mouth-to-snout resuscitation. . . .
