The hand bowl



We bought a bowl like this last year and Anya was fascinated and terrified of it. When we resurrected it a few days ago, she continued with the awe and fear. She was happy to play with it as long as it was turned off. She decided on Thursday to take it to Colleen's and she was over it. When I picked her up, she proudly demonstrated how she could reach into the bowl as the hand clapped down on hers and said "Trick or Treat". I think the fact that the other kids at Colleen's were more afraid than she was did the trick!

We also bought a big plastic pumpkin with a light inside for the front lawn the other day. We set it up in the yard before going to dinner yesterday, so when we came home, it was lit up and she was so excited. We all had to go over to wish "punkie" goodnight with hugs and kisses before we could go inside! Our neighbors must think we're nuts!

Is that from Target? We saw something very similar (or exactly that) there 2 weeks ago and Caroline was a little scared at first and then shrieked everytime it go her.
