(Finally Miss Lily managed to open it >>and dismantle it...) Actually, I'd like to correct what Dennis said about the Bumble Ball. The toy the gang really enjoys is something called a Squiggle Ball (a small round ball that moves smoothly around by itself). The Bumble Ball, a toy designed for toddlers, has a round center with rubbery appendages...and it bounces about somewhat erratically on the little legs. The gang has played with a Bumble Ball before and HATED it. It is somewhat large, and just when they'd get up the nerve to go over and sniff it, it would change direction and bonk them (hard) in the nose. Not a fun toy after that.
