The Potato Head Family

My youngest niece loves Mr. Potato Head. The latest one that we’ve found comes in a bucket with a mommy, a daddy, and a baby and she loves building them up with other people. There’s also accessories like a hat, a handbag, and a necklace. The first time she played with it, she wanted to find the instructions to make sure that we were building them right. Some of the parts can be a bit stiff to push in. She gets upset when we mix up the ears and eyes and moustaches. I once turned them on their sides to build potato animals and it took her a while to come around to the idea that you don’t have to follow the instructions to build nice things. When they’re all built the way she likes it, we have to bring them to life to play mommies and daddies, and we’re not allowed to take them apart until it’s time to go home.
