Annoying toys for small children

[sobrique]

Right, well.
I'm in need of some suggestions for annoying toys for small children. So far I'm thinking messy, noisy or both.

But wait, erm. Yeah.

My lovely sister (She who posts as csi_ellie occasionally) had a baby this morning.

Will be called Logan, and was born at 0302, and weighed 8lbs 12.
I have no idea if that's good or not, but I figure it's heavier than a steak (even a really big one), so that's probably not a bad thing.

Convenient timing I feel, as it's just in time for Fathers day. (By the way slackers, fathers day is the 15th of June. That's 2 weeks)

So anyway, I feel it's my duty as uncle, and annoying older brother to ensure little baby Logan is corrupted and given every opportunity to annoy the hell of of his parents. (Just watch, I'll get a restraining order in the post in a few days).

To this end, I'm thinking:
Glitter.
Fingerpaint.
Playdough.
Things that make noise. Especially those that aren't battery powered, and can't therefore 'run flat'. Like rattles. And recorders.


Anyway, congratulations Ellie and Gaius.

(BTW, Google Calendar is awesome. Does anyone else use it? It works quite nicely with GooSync too, to synchronize with some phones, like my N95)

There isn't much thats really annoying that you can get for new babies, most of it tends to say '18 months or over' on it. Maybe a bear with a noise in it.
However, as he ages, may I recommend all musical instruments (especially drums), kerplunk, and hungry hungry hippos.
