Mall Racer

Some more photos from the mobile phone -- this time from September 2008:

When Scotty was just learning to walk he loved, loved, loved to push things around. Things like strollers, wagons, shopping carts -- everything. We thought this classic popper toy was the perfect fit for him and his obsession. This product has been selling for nearly 50 years, virtually unchanged in its design.


We found it in Zellers for $17. They don't even bother with packaging (just a price sticker), so we turned it over to the man as soon as we left Zellers and started walking back through the mall. It was clear that most people thought it was cute to see this giddy popper-pushing imp coming past them. Some people were probably concerned for their safety, given his erratic driving.
