I used to make it a point each Christmas to buy children noisy toys to take home. My best was the “Echo Microphone.” It made a weirdly loud and deep echo when you spoke into it. Best of all, it was a passive device, no batteries, so parents couldn’t kill it without using an ice pick. I also liked the slide whistles. Give ten kids in one house slide whistles. You, of course, can leave any time. And there were the rubber chickens that made a sort of manic “backawk!” when you squeezed them. Backawk – backawk – backawk. It was wonderful.

Another reason why old fashioned toys are better.

Isn’t it funny how fast these toys break down? And it’s never because the battery’s flat.
