    We've got one for our two year old. I think as long as they are watched with it then it should be fine :)

    The warnings are on there for a reason. Few years ago disney gave away dwarf backpacks with a video, young child managed to fatally strangle themselves with it in just a few minutes. The bags were immediately recalled. Just thought you might like to know...

    If anyone see's Macmoonstar please ask her/him to PM ASAP please.
    I was so impressed that a newbie so selflessly gave away their codes just because they couldnt get enough themselves.

    Anyway I have a Kermit sat here still in its little green bag, and I would like to give it to Macmoonstar. All I need is her/him to you know what via PM.

    I just hope this thread is being watched and Macmoonstar comes back, fingers and (frog toes lol) crossed

    Chris n tj to the rescue yet again! Good on you! And thanks again for helping me reach the target, my kermit arrived yesterday! Thanks so much!

    He is 3 in December. Plus, it's only being used as a changing bag. I doubt he will even put it on, but if he does he will be watched carefully. He wears backpacks all the time.

    The straps actually come off as well - thus making it safer for little ones. I still only let my boy play with him supervised though.
    He was quite impressed - although did keep on shouting out "cat", but at 17 months, every animal that moves is a cat at the moment!

    My kermit actually arrived a few weeks ago, but he had a bald patch on his tummy and a really bad point job on his left eye. Sent him back to Cravendale who sent a replacement which arrived yesterday. Kermit has a big black gash across his eye :( How crap.

    And it was in partial thanks to you, iKennett that I was able to give him his Kermit! :T

    My little boy is really sweet with his "Kermit Cat" though!

    Had a feeling that would happen. I wonder how many of those selling do have small children in the extended family that would love a Kermit?

    One of the real pleasures of my life is getting treats for my grandchildren - who are both a bit old for a Kermit backpack. I don't want to paint myself as a saint, but where kids are concerned, giving is so much nicer than getting.

  • Well I don't have any and although I'm small it don't fit me.
