Bead Stick

Posted on: 06/22/08, 18:13:00
One of Harley's favorite games is Bead Stick.
Harley playing Bead Stick with Bruce
He sits on your knee and plays with beads on a lollipop stick that you hold for him. I've discussed Toys On A Stick before, see the entry Foot Toys.
Harley gets the bead
This particular stick is strung up with different shaped beads whose holes are bigger than the diameter of the stick. Apart from the pony bead at the bottom to keep everything from sliding off, and the pony bead at the top, which Harley had to struggle with a bit, the rest come off easily. Often, he'll grab a bead in the middle of the stick, and fling the ones above all over the living room with a flick of his head. But occasionally he'll get one, and chew on it for awhile.

What a great toy! Mika likes foot toys too. Stewie likes the flinging game (especially food. especially after the floor has been vacuumed).

Harley is tooooo cute!
