Growing Up A Hero
Most kids fantasize about being a hero when they grow up and plenty of them even wear the costume, but few are fortunate enough to be added to the esteemed list of Growing Up Heroes photos.
Personally, I love kids books, but there are some topics that just shouldn’t be included in their subject matter. All Things Mundane took a great look at a few extreme examples to prove that just because something’s marked safe for kids to read doesn’t actually mean you’ll want to let your children anywhere near it.
Creepy Little Adults
Photographer Anna Skladmann has a great photo series of creepy, upper-class Russian kids who act as though they are all grown up. There is no light in their eyes or childhood left in their faces. The effect is eerie. View them if you dare…mwahahahaha.
Plushies Made From Kid Pics
I am beyond enamoured with this concept -creating artistic plush dolls based on kids drawings. Best of all, the pieces were then sold to the parents as a fundraiser for the kid’s school. I can only pray that they have awesome fundraisers like these when I actually have children.

Cracked has a great list of 20 baby products that should not exist. The baby high heels have creeped me out since I heard about them.
But this here manual snot sucker…just genius really.
I highly encourage everyone to read the whole list. Everything here belongs in “Stupidest Products Ever.” Everything. It’s shocking, disgusting, weird and every other adjective that you RTD readers have come to love.
