One of the characters in the cartoon wore a hat that covered his face, except for 2 eyeholes. I guess kids these days don't watch that anymore. One look at this and I thought “Fat Albert”.

Funny that ThinkGeek is selling them--they are used a lot by physical and occupational therapists and are sold by special-needs catalogs as well as toy companies. Anyway, have your son flip it over and sit in it. He can rock and slide and go crazy without actually falling. It's also fun for collecting toys, or using as a giant dog bowl. Or as a step stool to reach Mommy's iPhone. Our 4-year-old adores her Bilibo and calls it her Beluga.
