We read a lot of books with Charlie. Every week he goes to the library with Grandma and comes back with 8 new books (and pizza, but that's a different story). One of this week's discoveries was a story called Mice and Beans by Pam Munoz Ryan. It's adorable, a [mouse]tail about Rosa Maria organising a birthday celebration for Catalina, the youngest grandchild in her huge family. Obviously with any Mexican celebration, there is a pinata filled with candy and treats. Which Charlie decided was fabulous. You get to destroy something with a stick and get candy as a reward; what's not to love about that? So I did a little skipping around on eBay and found this Cookie Monter Pull Pinata. Now is it just my perverse little mind, or do you really release the candy by pulling ribbons out of Cookie Monster's butt? I don't now about you, but Cookie Monster shitting candy on kids strikes a new level of wrong for me...
