I don't remember how exactly, but this morning I stumbled upon FAO Schwarz's online Muppet Whatnot Workshop. Li'l Boo perked up from his dinosaurs and caught a glance of my computer screen just while the Kermit and Miss Piggy video introduction was playing, and ran over to join me. Although not intended as a game, he loved the virtual Whatnot Workshop! I bet he spent a half-hour rearranging the optional body, eye, hair and costume choices, designing his perfect Muppet Whatnot.
Which made me glad that I didn't expose Li'l Boo to the Whatnot Workshop last holiday season as he appreciated it MUCH more today after having visited Disney's Hollywood Studios and experiencing Muppet Vision 3D earlier this year. (I think that was the first time he'd actually seen The Muppets cast of characters, and I think it's important to see them interacting to get a true sense of what The Muppets are.)
So now I have something else to send Li'l Boo and c2cDad off to do the next time I'm busy in the city on a weekend: they can head to FAO Schwarz and make their own Muppet Whatnot for us to keep. :-D
You can order the muppet you design online for $129.99, and they'll ship two or three business days after you place your order. They also offer e-Gift Cards for people to go online and design and order their own.
Pretty cool, huh?
