Wish For a New DVD Player

The kids love to watch DVD movies. Hubby and I are on the lookout for a new unit since ours seem to be on the brink of extinction due to abuse, misuse and old age.

Oh, did I mention that the remote control’s buttons do not correspond to the function it is supposed to do?

Bluray dvd players would be a good thing to get to replace said unit. Hubby wants a player with a DIV-X format for the encoded AVI files of movies and TV series.

I am sure our Kuya will be the happiest for there would be no need to call him when we need to pause the player or choose a chapter :D

Wooden Pecking Hens

HANDS is the theme for this week’s Photo Hunt and here I wrote here that we have a hand in educating our two younger children.

I thought about featuring this photo of my youngest daughter’s hand holding a wooden toy with five pecking hens which looks like a handmade toy.

I thought the concept of this toy is originally Philippine-related but when I Googled the term, I found out the toy is of Scandinavian origin!

Surprise, surprise!

Below is the toy in a close-up photo:

Littlest Pet Shop Toy Puppies

The littlest pet shop toys are wonderful toys for children. Their feet have small magnets. They have teeny tiny accessories like bones and hats.

These are not for young children to play wth because of the small parts that can either get lost or swallowed (I hope not).

I got these on sale, by the way :)

Matchbox Ford GT

Every Saturday, participants post photos based on a theme. The theme for this Saturday is METAL.

One of my son’s newer addition to his toy collection, a Matchbox Ford GT toy car. He doesn’t really get this brand since he likes another toy brand more than this but he could not resist not having a Ford GT. Who wouldn’t?

Matchbox toy cars, like the other toy cars being sold like this Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X which is my other entry, are made of die-cast metal

Here is a real Ford GT, my very first Photo Hunt entry, if I remember it right.
