For those of you haven't heard the newest hottest toy for Christmas just came back in stock at KBtoys Its called the Leapster. The price is $89.99, but Leapster is on sell for $79.99 and use coupon SEARSKBTOY to save $10 off your order! Your price is $69.99. Plus KBtoys has FREE SHIPPING! You can only buy one at a time, but I just placed multiple orders of 1 Leapster per order.
The leapster is on back order from Wal-Mart, Amazon, Target, and Best Buy.
These are selling from $90 to $100 each on e-bay.

2. I got that e-mail this morning...
or rather, one with the subject line, 'The Hottest Christmas Toy'. I didn't open it, afraid of what may be in there, LOL.

3. For the same $90 or $100 on e-bay
You could buy a ROOMFUL of children's books and non-electronic games and sit with the kids and read to them and teach them. But NOOOOO! Let's buy a toy that does the work for us so we can sit down every evening and watch reality TV.

Maybe I'm really overreacting here, but I think the best way to help children learn is through communication and interaction with other people.
