1GB SpongeBob Media Player Only 15 Bucks
You love music. You love video. You love SpongeBob.
Wait, let’s try that again.
Your CHILDREN love music. Your CHILDREN love video. Your CHILDREN love SpongeBob. And because you love your children, you tolerate their love of that weird little yellow water creature.
So, being a good parent, you will buy them a SpongeBob Media Player. It’s only $14.99. Yes, it’s refurbished. But look at it this way. No matter what you buy for your child, they will probably break it. This is way cheaper than an iPod, and they’ll think it’s more special because it has SpongeBob on it. Heck, buy two. It even has games on it (I’m guessing something like “Squidward Invaders”; I just made that up, so don’t blame me if it’s something else) and can act as a USB Mass Storage Device, which is more than I can say for an iPod. (Take that, Steve Jobs.)

Get Your Kid a Robotic T. Rex
Neat little item from Amazon. The Robotic T. Rex book, only $14.00.
Description:
Real robots have been around for more than half a century and used for a variety of purposes. Some dinosaur robots are at the cutting edge of robot research. For years, experimental dinobots have been helping scientists and engineers test out different ways of walking. This “rexbot” will have two legs for walking and a tail to keep it balanced, just like the real T. Rex. Also in existence is Banryu, a real working dinosaur robot. This Japanese robot is about as big as a medium-size dog and is able to patrol the house like a guard dog and using its infrared sensors that can listen for noises and sniff for smoke. From fossil bones in museums to special-effects monsters in movies, T. Rex is probably the most well-known and fascinating dinosaur of all. This all-encompassing, full-color illustrated book gives kids an up-close learning experience and the chance to build their own walking T. Rex!
Discount at The Shelving Store
As any stay at home dad knows, you sometimes develop womanly tendencies. I don’t mean breasts, although, hey, it could happen. I mean getting excited about things that you never knew existed. Things like a sale at The Shelving Store.
It goes something like this:
“A sale at The Shelving Store? Well we need more shelves in Johnny’s closet. If I had more shelves I could organize his closet much more efficiently. So a sale? On SHELVING? Is this my lucky day or what?”
Definitely “or what.” If you’ll excuse me, I need to go visit a strip club and then shoot a wild animal. Right after I place my order for new shelves. Family first.
Tauntaun Sleeping Bags
Tauntaun Sleeping Bags! Do they come in grown-up sizes? Please?
Apparently ThinkGeek played an April Fool’s gag and said these were real. They weren’t. But now they are. All is right with the world.
Hopefully the sleeping bags don’t smell like real tauntauns. Um, I mean, if tauntauns were real. You knew what I meant.

Stuff I Loved That My Kids Don’t Care About – Godzilla
Man, did I love me some Godzilla. All the Japanese monster movies. I used to watch them on Channel 9, WOR, in New York.
My kids? Eh. They don’t seem to care about the big scaly lizard. Or Mothra. Or Rodan. None of ‘em.
To be fair, my kids have a lot more choices than I did. They can call up anything that we have on Tivo whenever they like. There’s also DVDs, video on demand, YouTube. They need my help for those, but they know it exists, and they know how to ask for it. Me, I had to turn on the television and hope there was something on that I wanted to watch.
What’s funny, now that I think about it, is how much I enjoyed what I found. We didn’t have cable. I grew up in the Bronx, which didn’t get cable TV until the 1980’s. Maybe the 1990’s, I’m not sure. We didn’t even have a color television until I was into double digits. (Yes, I’m not young, and mom was not made of money.) Sure, I watched some crap. Heckle and Jeckle comes to mind. There’s a reason you don’t see those two magpies much anymore. The show kinda sucked. But it was on, and sometimes that’s all that was on. I seem to recall that in the morning before school, this was the only animated show on the air. This was when I was very young, maybe 5 or 6 years old, in Kindergarten.
But I also got to see some cool shit. Like Godzilla. And Mothra. And Rodan.
I’ll keep posting shows I used to watch, the good and the bad, right here. Got any shows that you remember? Leave us a comment, or email daddy AT daddytips dot com.
