"is a ball...is two balls"


Last week we received the latest product from Bilibo creator Alex Hochstrasser, the Babal. Simply, Babal is a large ball with a smaller ball nested inside of it. I liked it, but would kids? I immediately cracked one open and gave it to my daugher (2) and her cousins (2 and 4), and they took to it right away. It's a giant fist, it's a hat, it's a game...but the best moment was when Eli, upon being asked "what is this Eli?" said "is a ball..is two balls!" Which, coincidentally (or not) is what it says on the package! Amazing. Anyway, you can see more about Babal here. This toy is all imagination with 3-dimensional spaces. More about the benefits of this coming tomorrow!
