The Mighty View Master

Gracie and her View Master are practically inseparable these days, which is funny because she cried and said "no, I don't want to" when we tried to show her how to use it Christmas morning!

Sometime Christmas evening Gracie found the wonder that is the View Master on her own. After that she was hooked! Gracie had gotten 2 sets of reels from Santa, but this new loved toy needed some new accessories. Thanks to Aunt Heather's generous Christmas gift card we were able to add on to the View Master collection. Garren has also found a case to hold all of her reels, and he got 2 more reels at Toys R US. Apparently this toys was a hot item this year since there aren't many reels and Garren got one of the only 2 cases we found.

How I wish I had saved those reels that I had when I was a kid. It would be neat to see the old ones. Gracie doesn't play with the toy alone, oh no, mommy has to have her turns too! I think I have seen every image she has at least 100 times now!

So, when someone asks what Gracie's favorite toy from Santa is, I think it is only fair to say her Mighty View Master!

The ones we have:
*Clifford
*Go Deigo Go
*Care Bears
*Miss Spider
*Backyardigans
*Happy Feet
*Maggie & The Ferocious Beast
*Pooh's Hefalump Movie
*National Wildlife Federation (one with giraffe on package, we saw 3 or 4 different ones at Walmart)

The ones we would like to have:
*Jo Jo's Circus
*National Wild Life Federation-Marine Life
*Stanley
*Lazy Town
*Curious George
*Koala Brothers
*Dora
*Wiggles
*Thomas
*Nemo
*Strawberry Shortcake

Anybody have their old ones, or have older kids who don't use theirs anymore? We would love to see them!
