Cute Little Toys

A Corn on Cob? A Giant Groundnut in Shell?

Nope.. There are birds in them!!!

These are battery operated. When it is opened, the birds inside will start chirping away, quite pleasantly. The mechanism is very simple. Those little orange mushroom-like thingy are the off button when the cover is closed down. The chirping will stop once it is pressed down, and disconnect the battery wires from underneath the cardboard base. These are little gifts Kakak got for my girls from Indonesia when she went home for Hari Raya the last 2 weeks. I did find it very amusing.

Only thing is, they dont last very long.. By now, the cardboard layer is torn, the mushroom top is broken and the Chirpy Cheep Cheep birds are getting to be such a nuisance liao..
