Is Your Toddler Addicted to Television?
If so, be sure to sign up for the "101 Things to Do Instead of TV" email tips.
And check out Carrie's recommendation for "TV-B-Gone". It looks pretty good to me, but doesn't quite beat the "universal remote" from Adam Sandler's upcoming movie Click. I saw the preview last week -- it looked a bit silly, but you know...it has Adam Sandler AND it has Christopher Walken in it. You can't ask for much more. ;-)
In the movie, Sandler's character is a bit stressed out when he can't seem to figure out how to find the right remote control to do the right job at home (he's also stressed out about a lot of different stuff...but this is what sends him off to find a solution to the current problem). He goes to the electronic store, looking for a "universal remote". Well, he can't find anything at the front of the store, so he goes to the back room where Walken provides him with a remote.
Sandler goes home and finds he can fast-forward through fights with his wife, turn down the volume on his barking dog and control the kids as well. He goes back to the store to ask Walken about what exactly he gave him and Walken said, "Well, you did want a universal remote."
I tell you, it might be nice to have one of those once in a while! ;-)

Oh that's awesome! DH pretends to do that with our kids. If one is being a bit too *energetic* for his liking, he pushes the "mute" on his imaginary remote.
Too cute. I'll have to check that out, along with Fun With Dick and Jane. Love me some Jim ;)
The Adam Sandler movie comes out in summer, I think. I did see "Fun with Dick and Jane" and it was great fun. It was also only 90 minutes, which I appreciated after that crazy 3 hour King Kong!
