YouTube rocks. Owen's favorite things to watch are videos of wood chippers and other constuction equipment in action. Yes, wood chippers. No, not from the movie Fargo.
The neighbors near the park we visit had a wood chipper in their yard for a few weeks, so we spent time watching them grind up brush and trees over their fence. Not sure if they thought it was weird, or if they even noticed that a toddler was scrutinizing their progress.
So now O asks about the wood chipper frequently and we watch videos on YouTube of them. A particular favorite is the DutchDragon. As it turns out, lots of European equipment companies run YouTube videos of their products, complete with technopop background music.
Another favorite is the MuffinMonster video on YouTube - it's the grinder that Waste treatment plants use to grind up things that shouldn't be flushed down the toilet (think shoes, sofas, and 2 x 4s).
Just awesome. Particularly with the corny music.

The Bisousette also loves Youtube. She loves videos of dogs who pop balloons. Don't ask me why. You must be very careful with Dora videos, though. A lot of teenagers (I assume - who else would have the time and darkness of soul?) have put up Dora videos where Dora kills Boots, or Dora listens to Snoop Dogg. If you have netflix, you can watch Dora episodes instantly online. Also, Thomas the Tank Engine, Happy Feet, and other oh yeah the kid isn't even two yet but it sure does help when I'm trying to get dinner ready videos.
