Want to know why? Because I always end up coming home with more toys than they do.
Today is the perfect example. I drove my daughter to the toy store and told her she could pick out one toy. But I came home with two, both of them decorations for my office desk:
God help me, I'm a sucker for goofy toys.
Enjoy it while you can. Not being able to buy toys now that my kids are grown is the thing I miss most, including art supplies at Staples. Now I have to wait for grandkids to spoil.

How have the recent toy recalls and spate of reports on the dangers of toys made in China impacted your toy buying habits?

@alan: she actually chose a stuffed toy that looks a lot like the one I bought.

@lux: luckily, my family hasn't really been affected by the recall of toys made in China.

Nick, the red one on the left is upside down . . . it is a plant holder. Does Calvin get to go to his toy store? Can't wait to see what he gets.
