Post Script on the Sleepy Snake

The Sleepy Snake was a gift for my 4 year old nephew, B. We sent it to him in the mail, but didn't tell my BIL about the mouse located within the snake. They all thought the pink thing sticking out of it's mouth was it's tongue. My MIL, who had seen my blog with the photos of the mouse, asked if B liked the mouse, too.

Well!

The toy took on a whole new dimension when B discovered that the snake can eat things. He also had a great time playing with just the mouse. I had made a mouse before, but it was TOO big for the snake to eat. I think I'll finish knitting the ears and send it on.

According to my BIL, the snake has eaten a LOT of different things! Squee!
