For the person who has everything!
I spotted these over at Momgadget (nifty little blog!) and they tickled my funny bone!
We often complain about others spreading their diseases around, and find ourselves sharing the family cold. Well here we have the diseases you will be happy to share around and they are from Giantmicrobes. What a clever idea!
Let me introduce you to Herpes.

This is Mad Cow

and here is my new friend Chicken Pox 
They are created to represent the actual microbes and each purchase comes with a picture of the real microbe as well as some information about it. How clever!
Let’s hope that the next time you get Chicken Pox he is as cuddly as the little fellow here.

Thanks for the comments and the linkage. I’d actually not seen chicken pox. I LIKE that one! Too darned cute!
A lot of people find these little guys insulting or gross, but I think it’s one more way to laugh in the face of diversity — and what a way to get kids to learn about the various viruses and diseases!

I have had a few “Eeeww Gross’ comments but I think like you! I find them funny. If I have to suffer with a cold I would be happy to share it with one of these, too.
