There are toys aplenty in our household but getting them away from their owners for pictures, while thereโ€™s decent lighting for pictures (and I am in telcos) is a challenge. Still managed to find something for you ๐Ÿ˜‰ ...

Not being much in use I thought some air time wouldnโ€™t harm - so I paired it with my sonโ€™s crocodile. There was going to be a dolphin and a shark but he snatched them away ๐Ÿ˜‚
