Go to any store that sells toys and you will… without doubt… Find at least 20 different poop toys.
Apparently poop is cute now. It’s even rainbow colored. You can take a turd plushy to bed with you… to scare away the monsters, I guess.
But I’m here to tell you – kiddies – that poop is in fact NOT fun.
One morning, as I dropped Luna off at school, I stepped in a big pile of dog poop.
It was not fun. It was not cute. It was horrible.
I think the reason kids today think piles of poop are cute and fun is because they aren’t getting outside enough. They aren’t stepping in poop like I have all my life.
To ( sort of ) quote Pink Floyd… “HEY! … CHILDREN! … LEAVE POOP TOYS ALONE!!”
Then again, I could probably propel Skitter into the spotlight by creating a poop character.
I’ll get back to you on this. Stay tuned…
Yes, kids do that. Tell em something and thats just words. But first hand experience is something they never forget… especially if it was a bad idea in the first place.
