Patches and Badges
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
Frankly, we don't need no patches or badges, stinkin' or otherwise. But you do. Because you have patch-mad progeny. Someday they'll get over it, but meanwhile, here are a whole big bunch of staggeringly inexpensive iron-on and self-adhesive embroidered fabric badges and patches. The large ones range from 1-1/2" x 2" up to a 2" x 4" oval in dinosaur and sports themes. The small ones are for small-fry, but are an excellent quality and very workable for scrapbooking moms. All about 1" or 2", they feature tiny houses, cars, cows, clouds, stars, that sort of thing. Very, very assorted.

Kidlets age 6 and up will be tied up for hours assembling and playing with these packs of (9) different tropical fish, all approx 2" long, or the slightly smaller (approx 1-1/2" when assembled).

Filthy Lucre
For archeologically minded numismatists, now comes the "Dirty Old Coins" kit, complete with (5) genuine, hand-struck ancient coins from 1,500 to over 2,000 years old, all with their own authentic dirt and ancient schmutz still attached. All "Made in the Roman Empire. Assembled in the U.S.A." You get a 12pp instruction booklet, a PC or Mac-compatible CD-ROM coin image database for identification, a stiff brush, double-lens magnifier, and cleaning and de-corrosion fluids. Most coins will be worth a few dollars, the supplier says, but some rare finds could be worth "hundreds or even thousands." Plenty of fun either way.
