Went to a church service, and they where handing out "Quiet Bags," with toys in them, to the kids. Somebody muttered, "How's my kid going to fit in there?"

So: A big sound proof bag with a DVD player inside, and ventilation. You can now take your tot to the movies, fine dining, church, board meetings, and at the first hint of a fit, in he/she goes, and you can continue with your evening.

An adult size would be good too. When my Wife drags me to a musical, I can just go inside my quiet bag, and go on the internet.

//A big sound proof bag with a DVD player inside, and ventilation.//

Omit the ventilation and get my vote. I've always found that large plastic bags make great toys for children. Never hear a peep outta them.

[+] I had a similar concept that got many bad reviews (see link). I just wonder what you can do to silence the rattle and scuffle of all of those bags.

Just cut and paste Klaatu's entire last paragraph into Google. Press return.

//in rupibus ventosissimis// Wrong preposition, shirley? {edit} Oh, no - I was just thinking of a more violent death.

I guess if the discount knock off was just a garbage bag, you'd have a solution for the Marching Morons.

// a garbage bag //

Not strong enough. Even quite small kids can tear their way out of a regualr garbage sack before their air runs out. It needs to be one of those really heavy-gauge builder's rubble sacks, or a bivvy bag, well taped at the open end with gaffer tape.

8th have you given up all idea of reproducing your elf?

of course, that would be one noisy bag! ;)

How does one get into elf breeding, po?

Tip #1: DON'T put them in a sealed plastic bag.
-- 8th of 7, Jun 13 2008


I thought that's how it works... when a boy and a girl elf like each other very much, they climb inside a plastic bag.....

Or you could go to church outside, in a field or at the beach, and make a joyous noise as a family. Maybe even some unjoyous noises, like when you pretend to be the squawking pterodactyl coming to scoop up the kids. Of note: pterodactyls were part of creation too, or maybe were fakes placed in the fake fossil record by Satan, but either way warrant some consideration in a religious context.
