Was there really a Mr Potato Head in that movie?<br /><br />Tamera, I guessed wrong too. I guessed Silly Puddy.<br /><br />Dickster, (laughing and thinking about how goofy your Mr. Potato head looked) I think that was the catch. It allowed you to be creative and funny.<br /><br />Summer, I think there's a small window for Mr. Potato head fun. Somewhere between 4 years old and 7. And then (35- 65) Outside those windows... No fun.<br /><br />I'm having so much fun with this post. I've laughed out loud several times now. Heather... You with the jokes? Okay, a few shots of tequilla at the bar, a good idea, and a guy who looks like a rutabaga. Success!intrepidideashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07621013901216084367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679828344172201214.post-6625787058984986132009-05-01T18:14:00.000-07:002009-05-01T18:14:00.000-07:00Don't you wonder what moment sparked the idea to a...Don't you wonder what moment sparked the idea to animate a potato? -To give a vegetable emotional expression? <br />I'm thinking "there were two guys in a bar and a rutabaga walks in..."Heather Duganhttp://www.heatherdugan.com/blog/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679828344172201214.post-27437958182715547372009-05-01T10:28:00.000-07:002009-05-01T10:28:00.000-07:00I was showing my 8 year old a Mr Potato Head while...I was showing my 8 year old a Mr Potato Head while in the toy section a few months ago. "But what does it do?" he asked. Maybe he's too old for Mr Potato. Sigh. I was wanting to buy one and then play with it myself. The babies are too young. Choking hazard. Did they even have choking warnings when we were kids?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12551501505348753532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3679828344172201214.post-45095235717260972492009-04-30T19:10:00.000-07:002009-04-30T19:10:00.000-07:00I loved Mr Potato Head.

In fact my boys had one... though I admit I kinda liked playing with it myself. Alas, my boys now prefer potato guns...<br /><br />Simple toys are the best though - inevitably I've found that complicated toys fall by the way side. Kids need room for their imagination to grow and not have it all dished up on a plate.Jane Turleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01441332018679664175noreply@blogger.com
