Lautje and Toys

Like any child, Lautje loves toys. And thanks to the generosity of so many of his friends and relatives, he has alot of them. From the plastic stacking cups that he scatters around the apartment to the wooden picture puzzles that he ingeniously plants under the Mommy's feet as she's trying to walk through the living room (the nerve of that Mommy...), Lautje has many toys and he enjoys all of them. But toys come in different shapes and sizes, such as the massive kitchen set at the Oma's house (that all of the grandchildren play with) that Lautje can spend hours trying to destroy.
Lautje also enjoys the simple things in life, such as a small soccer ball. And, of course, plastic spoons are always welcome...
But perhaps Lautje's favorite toys are not really toys at all, but rather things that he sees the Mommy and Daddy using often. As several blog entries have noted, the laptop computers are perennial favorites. Generally speaking, any and all electronic devices find favor with Lautje. For example, the Daddy's cellphone (as seen below - switched off, of course...) is capable of keeping even the grumpiest boy entertained.
Simple things work very well too. Aside from plastic spoons (and the IKEA plastic clips), sunglasses always bring a smile to Lautje's face (though, admittedly, he tends to break every pair that he gets his hands on - but then again, so does the Daddy...).
