Fun stuff for kids and parents

Tried and tested on willing guinea piglets

This optimistic, self-employed writer, translator, columnist and mum knows that with kids, a dash of charm and a good giggle beat fear of failure every time.

So here are some out-of-the-box ideas to keep kids and parents happy for hours...

The permanent exhibits at the Design Museum

Here's a very old LEGO house. You don't see trees like that nowadays.
And this dear old radio looks good enough to eat.
This is the coackroach piano. Bet it nibbles your fingers
with its pearly whites if you get too close.
This time lapse photo of a little sausage dog shows how fast
their tiny legs have to move to keep up! What a waggy tail!
Now here's a chair for a wide bottom.
Only legs that thin are likely to give way - like Bambi on ice. 
You wouldn't freeze even during a cold Danish winter
with furnishings as hot as this.
And then we come to the recycled chairs made out of newspapers.
No smoking around here, that's for sure.
Not easy to dust, so that's a good excuse.
We loved these policemen in uniform.
And the next photo might be a bit shocking...

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED
:o))

ART LOVERS READ ON...
You can't miss this strapping chappie on the wall.
The inscription says something like 'The founder of the Danish Museum for Design' and you can't help thinking what a free-spirited fellow he was until you realise the founder is the Stalin-looking guy at the bottom (with just his head showing). Makes a change from all the ladies, anyway, doesn't it. 

A good line for a song...
You can keep your hat on!
