In other news about brain-shaped toys, here's the Walking Brain. Wind it up and, yes, it walks. The really stupid thing, though, is that someone's created a 15 second video of it waddling across a blank screen that they think people will pay to download (you can watch it for free), while the toy costs way less than the video.

I think it is real cool! I was going to go over to Sandra Porter's blog to tell her about it since she has started a bling list, but I saw she already has it. The video is cute and I think this fits just fine in the "Bling for babies" category! LOL!
