My brother the expert kidgiftgiver. When he came to visit, he rightly figured that any annoyance we might feel towards the Disney Princess Silly Bandz he brought K2 would be forgotten as soon as we were all woken up in the middle of the night by the kid's new, haphazardly set alarm clock.
In other words, if you're thinking of buying the kid this sweet, vintage, see-through, Creative Playthings alarm clock from etsy seller Onecozynest, you can't get all surprised later when it turns out she doesn't quite know how to set it.
On the plus side, it'll help the kid make sense of Peter Pan in a way that the clock on the cable box never will.
