Kid’s Apparel
I think you can see why these beanies sold out quickly in the fancy purls Etsy shop. The good news is that they appear to take custom orders.
Check out the equally adorable Shrek version after the break.
Hello Kitty irritates me, but there’s no denying that these pants are cute as hell. Unfortunately, if you want a pair for your kid (or yourself, just admit it) you’ll have to learn how to knit. The pattern is the only thing up for sale.
Don’t be too disappointed if you lack the skills. Sanrio has never been one to turn down an opportunity to make a little money, so there’s hope that an official version could come out some day.

Can you believe that this little TMNT Donatello costume is little more than some sweatpants, paper towel rolls and fabric?
Creator Vicky North explains:
“I love making costumes for my grandchildren. I hand made the turtle shells out of fabric and quilt batting. I made the weapon holders out of paper towel rolls and fabric and leather strips. The suits were green sweat shirt and green sweat pants. Bought the knee and elbow pads and blue and purple masks separate. Used velcro to hook the front and back of the shells together for easy on and off. Had a great time making them. Approximately one yard each for the back shells and 1/2 yard for the front shells. You decide how thick to make the shells so use batting accordingly.”
Clearly, a child with the combined powers of a full Batman, a full Superman and half of a Danger Dog is too much superhero to confine his talent to the playground alone.
But you can see his longing to be an ordinary kid once again – to live the carefree life of the child instead of carrying the weight of the world’s problems on his tiny shoulders.

From That’s Nerdalicious!: If you are unfamiliar with the Rock Paper Scissors Spock Lizard metagame, this article ought to clear things up.
Speaking of clearing things up, this bib will prevent baby from making a mess while reminding you about the rules of the game. That having been said, baby is only going to play rock and paper (and maybe a lizard by accident), so your strategy should be clear.

I mean, what’s better than Star Wars, an adorable kid and ads during the Super Bowl that geeks the world over can appreciate?
Outtakes and bloopers.
I feel like I found the DVD bonus material!
The Schwarz has not quite developed in this one.
