Kris Holm Mountain Unicycle
First to recommend
Description
If you thought keeping your arse upright on one wheel was challenge enough, let me tell you a little something- there are actual humans out there who not only have accomplished that but have taken it outside the circus tent and into the mountains. That's right- mountain unicyclists. They must be descended from the same cavemen (or cavewomen) who first looked at a rock and had the chutzpah, skill and patience to whittle it into a wheel. Then ride it. A different breed, I tell ya.
I sought out the help of Wikipedia to find out what, exactly, differentiates a unicycle from its badass mountain cousin and found this: "unicycles typically lack a gear system, preventing the user from coasting or reaching high speeds. Mountain unicycling usually takes place on specially designed unicycles, which are equipped with strong hubs, large, knobby tires, and rugged frames."
Ok. That still won't help me keep my nose out of the gravel. Sigh.

Eskimold and Super Shovel
First to recommend
Description
My kids had so much fun last year in a pile of snow they mashed up into a crazy looking igloo that this winter I'm going to spring for a "professional" kit, lol. This one has the plastic gadgets they'll need to get the job done. Check out the Super Shovel on the site, too....
From the site:
Snow day? Yay! Celebrate by making a real igloo. Just fill an Eskimold with a few shovelfuls of snow, and flip out a curved eskiblock. Snow-proof instructions tell you how to place the blocks and to use the plastic "eskisaw" to even everything off. You can also build straight walls for forts.
Kids can use the ergonomically designed, high-quality plastic Children's Super Shovel to carve a deep and wide path to their new and exciting play place.
Colors for both will vary; we will choose for you.
