Put a giant dinosaur at home this Christmas? No thanks

I suppose that many of you already have in mind part of that long list of gifts to ask the Magi, Santa Claus or both if we are lucky. To help us with this task, merchants have been filling their windows with toys of various kinds and formats since the middle of the month.

One of those claims is the wardrobe closet size stuffed animals. They do their job, we will not deny that. It is entering the toy plant and the polar bear is seen from the other corner. And of course your son there who shoots, throws himself on top of him, looks at you and says ... I want one! The answer is simple, Put a giant dinosaur at home this Christmas? No thanks

To get an idea of ​​the stuffed animal that concerns us in this article, we will say that we speak in a small animal 76cm wide by 190 long and 112 high, that is to say more than a meter and a half cubic stuffed for stuffed animals and without taking into account the weight.

Basically physical problem

What my son does not understand at his young age, is that the walls of the house do not expand and that the space we each have at home is limited. For him, he would simply put half of the store in his room and he would sleep on one of his new giant friends. Because I don't know if you will have noticed, but when a child is sleepy, but really sleepy, he is able to fall asleep on the bed of a fakir, so imagine how simple it will be to sleep on top of a stuffed animal of three cubic meters with The size of your bed.

Another thing is to take home the animal in question in a medium-sized car. That a big one would do the same because a bug like that or you take a minibus or vacuum pack it. But since you are this masoca, you start thinking about how you would take it home. It is clear that in the trunk it will be difficult to close it.

You can place it in the passenger seat or if you only have one chair in the car, put it in the free seat you have behind, but such a supercharged stuffed animal with more hormones than a bodybuilder, next to your son's chair and you two violate a couple of physical laws and half of Pythagoras' theorems, so either the stuffed animal learns to drive and goes home alone, or you go to the self-help section and you read the one about clumsy contortionism, but inside You can't fit the car out of the car.

Another option would be to open a window and take out the head, the one with the stuffed animal I mean, and it is clear that you are going to be the feeling of the neighborhood arriving with the head of a blue dino hovering above the roof of your car.

The added problem is that with this time we can not do that, unless we want to get home with a sponge the size of a nightclub. But don't worry because I am sure that the home delivery service will enchant you.

My house is not the one of the ad

I would love for my son to have a room where two giant stuffed animals and a popcorn booth like the one in the photo fit, even one that accommodates ten stuffed animals and even the full market if necessary, but that does not fit In my living room, moreover, that doesn't fit even at the door of the house.

How do they put those things in the house? Because for me they make them inside and from there they don't come out. Yes, that the dinosaur is very good and it seems even more comfortable to lie on it and spend the afternoon reading stories in his arms, but it was going to have to be in the home park, because it is the only place nearby from my house where the bug fits.

The price

We have talked about the fact that the main drawback of these stuffed animals is their size, but it is that 200 euros that costs the diplodocus of the stuffed animals is to continue occupying their space as a claim in the store.

The sentimental value

We have all seen those romantic scenes in which the boy appears at a girlfriend's house with a huge stuffed animal. She is very excited to see him because it was what I always want as a child, so if I go and give my daughter a stuffed animal now I am sure she will ruin one of the future romantic scenes of her life and it is something I do not want.

It shows that I don't want give away a giant dinosaur. And you?
