These are great, come a sturdy wooden box and it a great big kid little kid sharing "show me" toy.

I got these for my niece, she’s nearly 6 and loved them. She is learning to read now and it was great to see her sounding out names and putting the letters together to spell them on the necklaces. It’s evident that she’ll be playing with these for a while as she discovers that you could actually load up the strings instead of having only a couple of beads in the middle. That said: you might want to get some extra beading string right off the bat; we were out in a very short time with lots of beads left in the box. The beads are sturdy, cute and easy to put on the strings. The box has a nice lid and keeps everything organized and easy to put away.

Great starter beading for young ones. Much more durable then the plastic ones and the strings with the covered ends make it easier on Mommy!

The beads are just the right size for little hands, the box is great for storing the beads and string, and there is friction between the wood beads and the round-shoelace-type string so the beads stay on the string. This is a great toy. The box is less than an inch high so it is friendly to those of us with small homes.

I bought this one for my nephew. When I told my kids, they protested because they mistakenly thought that I had given theirs away.

Only problem: It is slightly tricky to get everything back in the box so that it closes. It is not too bad though.

Overall - I highly recommend this toy. I plan to keep it for my grandkids when my kids are done with it.

I purchased this to go along with Melissa And Doug Decorate Your Own Jewelry Box….and, it is wonderful. Allows creativity and pride in making something that is their very own! So cute, a lot of variety and durable. Melissa and Doug products are so long lasting and promote individuality and creativity.

Skidmarks Everybody Gets ‘Em

Posted by admin on April 12, 2009

Face it, potty humor and bathroom jokes make us all laugh because they poke fun at embarrassing experiences that all can appreciate.

Everybody has glanced down with dismay into their undies at one point or another, only to be confronted with the mark. As disgusting as it is, there’s not a person on the planet who doesn’t know what I’m talking about.

Case in point, all through history, the greatest literary minds have woven this concept into their works:

God Save the Mark! — William Shakespeare, King Henry IV

Apparently, the great Bard was such a skin-flint that he refused to throw away a tainted pair of skivvies…..

Mark where the piercing wind shoots javelin-like… — George Meredith, Modern Love

Seriously, need I say more about that one? Meredith must have had some significant tushie-busting gas to have elaborated in such a way. Who hasn’t been confronted with piercing wind that shoots javelin-like on one occassion or another?

The mark of the man of the world is absence of pretension. — Ralph Waldo Emerson

I like this one. Emerson understands that the skidmark is a common thread of the human experience, and he promotes that the man of the world doesn’t carry any pretenses about it.

Look ma….I finally made my mark! — your idiot brother-in-law

OK. That last one is my own creation.

I think that a pair of novelty undies with a fake skidmark on them would make a funny gag gift. Like for a retirement party to show the old codger what old age has in store for him. Or perhaps for a bachelorette party to show the lady-of-the-hour what the bliss of matrimony holds in store for her now that the courtship is over…
