If your obsession with electronics is giving you a head start on a lucrative career in electrical engineering, Mommy is 1000% supportive. And she definitely appreciates that you helped her discover 90% of her iPad’s functionality. She just wishes you could at least pretend to be interested in the mountain of age-appropriate toys lying untouched on the living room floor. Unfortunately, these days, your ideal plaything meets at least two of the following criteria: 1) Has lots of buttons. 2) If broken, will cost Mommy lots of money and/or threaten her job security. 3) Ceases to function when dropped in the toilet. Mommy thought Full House had finally jumped the shark when a pivotal storyline involved Mary Kate/Ashley Olsen repeatedly calling Tokyo, until you actually started racking up long-distance charges on Mommy’s phone. And now Mommy’s learned that the hours she wasted trolling Toys ‘R Us and Wal-Mart aisles for a plastic model that would appease you should have been spent downloading the latest and greatest apps for babies. How did Mommy miss this memo? Now you’ll have to burn the midnight oil to catch up to the other 1-year-olds, who can already read, sign and speak Mandarin, and Mommy’s depressed that your cohort will render her generation obsolete by 2020.

I know what will help keep the money in the tuition fund and not on the iphone replacement and still allow endless entertainment!! http://www.fisher-price.com/fp.aspx?st=132341&e=detail&pcat=bulnl&pid=65905 And just a couple apps… to get the entertainment to edu-tainment. http://www.fisher-price.com/fp.aspx?st=130000&e=app
Love it! Stumbling upon this very line of Fisher Price products is exactly what tipped me off to the fact that I’ve been slacking in the edu-tainment parenting department. Thanks for the hot tip!
I consider my children to already speak another language because they don’t seem to understand the language I speak.
I feel a million-dollar app brewing!
U guys r hilarious!!! My sister’s son keeps playing with my iphone and at 1 and a half he knows how to swipe the phone to get to the next picture. HOW is this possible!??!?
This generation of kids is brilliant! My 1-year-old son figured out how to swipe the unlock feature on my iPhone in a day. I’ve added a password, which I’m pretty sure he’s on to. I love him, but sometimes he frightens me…
