It’s so cold out there and the snow is so crazy it looks like something out of Empire Strikes Back!
To play Hoth, you’ll need:
An Imperial AT-AT Walker (Some sort of long-legged lego creation, a toy dog, or a real dog will suffice)
Luke – Wear a snowsuit with ski goggles (Turn it into a flight suit if you can pull an orange sweatshirt over top and add a bike helmet)
Han – Wear a parka with ski goggles
Leia – Wear white and add an awesome vest. (And then find appropriately warm snow gear) Braid hair and pin it over the top of the head like a hairband.
RACIST CUPCAKES?! Yeah, we never thought we’d see those words together either until we saw it on The Stir. Duncan Hines has gone and made this “Hip Hop Cupcakes” ad to promote its new Amazing Glazes line. By adding a little flava to vanilla cupcakes, the cupcakes really seem to find their groove.. in blackface. We’re more uncomfortable with the cupcakes than when Roger Stirling dons similar makeup to serenade his stupid wife Jane.
Oh man do we need to see something positive now. Like art teacher Rama Hughes‘ collection of his students’ works on Flickr. Pretty awesome to think the California Landmarks series was all done by 9-year-olds. (Via Tiny Iron Fists)
With the long weekend underway and the weather finally warming up, we’re looking for more ways to get our bunch out of the house and moving around. This is where this exhaustive website really comes in handy. The Games Kids Play is an index of playground games from around the world.
