Okay, starting at the top left hand corner and going in a clockwise direction:
1) Swimming Pool
2) Hannah Montana Bed Covers
3) New Swimmers, Size 7
4) Strawberry (fridge) Magnet*
5) Pink Playdough
6) Picture Frame
7) Laptop**
8 ) Care Bear (purple)
9) Piano Keyboard
10) Hannah Montana Punching Bag
11) Folder for Homework
* I have no idea what this is supposed to mean
** Not one of those kid ‘play’ laptops. Oh, no. “I want a real laptop like yours, mum. I’ll need one for school next year, you know. For homework.”
(Now if she were starting at a private school next year she could possibly be correct! And I’m thanking my stars she’s not. Just buying the uniforms is expensive enough, I’ve discovered!)
I found #10 the funniest. Riley already has a Spiderman punching bag, via the sea of brands that is all boys toys. So Keira wants to even the score. Fine.
“Why don’t you get a regular punching bag and just stick a picture of Hannah Montana on it?” I asked.
That got a ‘no.’
And somehow I think that her idea of a punching bag with Hannah Montana’s face on it, and mine, are two very different things.
For example, mine might have a big red dot in the middle with an arrow that says “Aim Here.”
