The Polkadot Platypus

Let's Play Mail

We are not sure what it is, but doesn't it seem that all children are obsessed with the mail? We guess it is the anticipation of seeing what they might get to open. Well ... the Let's Play Mail Set should satisfy their needs. This adorable little play set lets your child use their imagination at its wildest. Your child can send letters to whomever they choose ... and there is a Letters to Santa Set that is sold separately. Made in the USA, this is one toy that will be safe for your child this holiday season.

*******************

We have extended the 25% discount for one more day, since none of of our beloved subscribers were notified until just recently. Our Monday Madness contest, however, has ended. Congratulations to Kristen (KristenLJackson at MSN dot com) ... you are the winner of a $50 gift certificate!

Photo contest: We have a winner!

Ok, ok ... so we are busy around here! :) You all have been bugging us to know who won our BabyLegs photo contest that ended on 11/15/07. All of the photo entries were adorable, so we randomly picked a winner to be fair. Sawyer, little man, you are one lucky little guy!

You (and your mommy) now have $50 to use any way you like at The Polkadot Platypus! Congratulations!

Monday Madness: Win a designer wipes case!
