  1. Oh, oh, you know Derry loves his pipe cleaner "snakes." Darcy, you have good taste in toys. (I bend the ends over so no wire is sticking out, then just curl them around my fingers, to make a spiral.)

  2. Oh how lovely.Does Darcy take his pipe cleaner everywhere with him? We are having trouble persuading marmalade to get active, a red light pen does it for about 20 seconds and thats it for her, she flops!

  15. Miss Kitty used to love her pip cleaners fashioned into circles that she could bat around and chase under chairs, the stove, the frig, whatever. Of course then she'd sit there and wait for someone to fish them back out with the long ruler.

    It was her favorite game.

    We're glad the lads enjoy their toys too.
