Everyone Loves a Slinky




Elisona has long loved playing with slinkies. In fact, we try to avoid the check out lanes with the mini slinkies in Wal-Mart because she invariably wants us to add a "baby shiny slinky" to our shopping cart every time she sees one. Recently, she has begged to watch slinky comercials on YouTube anytime I am sitting at the computer. Why I ever showed her one, I don't know! This afternoon was no exception, but as we were watching commercials from the 60's, 70's, and 80's, I thought she might enjoy seeing herself in a slinky commercial. Maybe you will enjoy it too!
(Nathan is excited because you can also watch this in HD if you view it on YouTube's site!)

That is awesome! Though I'm sure the slinky people won't like the fact that you used a generic one for the close-up at the end!

Yeah Palmer, I caught that in the 'edit room'. Unfortunately the metal (name-brand) slinkies, though fantastic on steps, also stretch out too easily in our Ellie's hands so they're not good for very long. We bought a case of the plastic ones (and bought the world map version for educational value).

We loved it. We'll never look at a slinky without thinking of Ellie! McCready's
