Fire fighting playset: Equipment + Firefighter + Special Edition FDNY Fire Fighter....
Knights and Astronauts...
...and a 6 piece block puzzle.
This one I didn't even think of buying. The surgeon in the mask with an oversized 'cleaver' knife looked too disturbing.

Supermelon
You are like a supercharged demolition machine in the supermarket. The moment your feet touches the floor, it's GO!!! The bigger and heavier the item, the more challenging it is to lift, drag and ran away with. We put one carton of milk in the trolley, you help with 4 dozen more. If we try to take anything away from you, you ran away, as fast as your two legs can take you, to the next aisle!

Mummy: BY, what color is this?
*BY ignores mummy, continues playing with the balls*
Mummy: BY, what color is this?
*BY looks up*
Mummy: What color is this?
BY: BLUE!
Mummy: No, it's RED. *picks up a blue ball* What color is this?
BY: RED!
Mummy: No, it's blue. *points to the ball that BY is holding* What color is that?
BY: BLUE!
Mummy: No, that's a GREEN ball.
*Mummy started laughing*
Definitely not some crazy mother here. I think you got the concept of colors after a while. You could pass me all the RED balls if I held one up for you to compare. YEAH!

ALIENS!!!
This is quite a surreal picture. Looks like an alien ship landing and you running away from it. Actually, it's really quite strange that the stadium looks deserted. Hmmmm....

Easter Egg Hunt
Eggonomics:
24 eggs were hidden. 16 kids expected. 10 turned up. 1 kid refused to look for any, preferring instead, to play a supervisory role and give instructions to the other 9 kids. 4 kids were too young to look for them and were each given 1 egg. You managed to find one, surprisingly. The last 4 kids (age between 4-8) gathered 19 eggs amongst themselves.
