As a parent of a young child, we get quite a bit of junk mail for this "great" offer or another. This past week was the topper of them all. Emily received in the mail some 5x7" cards and some "trader" sized cards of "Weird N Wild" animals. You'll have to check out the website to fully understand why it was over the top.
They are animal cards; some real, some ancient, some mythological. They are ALL depicted in a ferocious state...mouths gaping open with menacing stances or them actually attacking/eating another animal. It gives a description of them and some other key info.
I don't mind Emily learning about these other animals, but I am concerned that she thinks ALL animals bite or are dangerous because of these images. On the other hand, it is pretty funny that she tells Eric every day when he leaves for work to watch out for the "docadile" because it'll "eat/bite you". So, now we not only hunt for frogs, but for crocodiles, too! Watch out (reruns of the) Crocodile Hunter!
