We like to live our life under the constant watchful eyes of thousands of tiny, Japanese toys. We like to think of them as little forest spirits made of plastic and vinyl who will grow giant fangs and claws if we are ever in danger.
One of our favorite toys is the Cubees. Cubees are little rectangular animals - cats, dogs, cows, pigs, etc - with flaps for heads. When you push a button on their butt, they sing a song in a tiny, squeaky animal voice. Oink oink oink.
But the best thing about Cubees is that they are stackable. Stack the pig on the cow on the duck and hit the button, and they all sing together. Stack the cat on the pig and the duck, and then stack them all on the chicken and the dog and the cow, and you've got something so cute that your head will explode. Witness below.
We purchased our Cubees at Doublepunch in San Francisco. They are also available online at, sigh, Urban Outfitters. We recommend you buy all six for the full effect.
