"Dress Me" Monkey

First to recommend

Description

I was going to intellectualize this along the lines of "Monkey See, Monkey Do" but as usual, I'm over-thinking it. The bottom line? It's just a ridiculously cute ("as a button"- oh let me just get a pun in, sigh) toy that is definitely going to be on my mind the next time I have a toddler in need of some retail lovin'.....

from the site:

Why is this velour monkey smiling? He loves to teach, and he helps adults make learning fun. As kids help the soft, floppy fellow on and off with his clothes, they discover the fascinating arts of zipping, buckling, lacing, buttoning, snapping, and rolling sock tops. Soon they'll be aping their new skills and having fun dressing themselves.

For ages 18 months and up.

Dragons and Pagodas Building Blocks

First to recommend

Description

This is one of those toys (in this case, a themed series) that makes you say, "Why didn't I think of that?" Archiquest took famous architectural themes from around the world- Ancient China is the subject in this set- and re-imagined them in intricate and stunningly colorful detail on wooden blocks. The result? A visually exotic and educational take on a classic toy.

Maybe your New Year's resolution is to finally organize your family photos...
Perhaps you want to find a hostess gift that is useful for once....
Do your kids have a digital camera? Would you like to encourage creativity?
Are you tired of the time and money you spend printing and sending out holiday photos or post-party pictures to attendees?
Did you forget to buy a present and need something ASAP?

flickr.

Whether you utilize the ample storage of a free account or purchase a $25 Pro Upgrade as a present for yourself or someone you know, this is one of the best sites online for organizing, sharing, printing and customizing gifts that utilize your digital images.

So instead of printing and mailing all of the Christmas Eve pictures to Aunt Edna, email her your online gallery address and let her pick the sizes she wants.

And be sure to check out the online groups on flickr. You can explore the world and your personal interests from your own desk.

Consider buying a Pro Account for your teenager or husband and using the print-out as a fabulous stocking stuffer. Or wrapping it in a lovely ribbon and presenting it to the hostess of a holiday party you attended. She'll be thrilled to have such an easy way to share the pictures from that night- and other attendees can upload their for her as well.

It's a great thing, flickr. Really great. (via Click Here to Buy Flickr Pro as a Gift)
