Fun Foil Infomercial Review
Whoa!! This certainly isn’t what I thought it was going to be. When I first heard fun foil, my mind instantly drifted to yet another useless and poorly named kitchen utensil used to keep food “fresher” for longer. You can guess how surprised I was when it turned out the Fun Foil was just a toy for kids.
And now that were on that topic, has it really been that long since I was a child. I mean, I remember seeing the infomercials for children’s toys when I was young and thinking “Oh my God” that thing looks awesome. But that was in a time when the infomercials that were targeting young kids included lead based paints or something equally considered dangerous by the dang Hippies that are in charge today. Bah, mercury poisoning isn’t that bad. We used to play with the stuff. Anyways, now the infomercials are on some seemingly lame items. Foil that you push onto an animal shaped figure and it comes out shiny. I think that its kind of a slap in the face to imagination and inventiveness of children, but wait, can’t even spank your kids anymore, dang Hippies!! When I was young we could play all day with a ball of Play Doh. We didn’t need any stencils to help us make something, we would just roll it into a ball and when it got too dirty and had all the hair in it, we would throw it away.
Now kids are suppose to “bling’ out there scooters and what not. I am all for creativity and individuality, but whether or not my nephews scooter looks like everyone else’s is pretty far set from my mind. Nonetheless, my nephew is four years old and I know that he will love to play with this foil stuff no matter how much I don’t care for it, and after all its for the kids.
