Re: London 2012 Olympic mascots
My class teacher showed our year 1 children the video about the mascots and how they came to be. Apparantly they are aimed at under tens and the video was quite good.
The verdict - the children, aged 5 - 6 years loved them as did the teacher, early 40s. The teaching assistant 61 years wasn't as impressed!
I suppose they have impressed their target market so they have achieved their objective, looks like they will make a fortune in sales on merchandise if our class are anything to go by!
I liked the video too, but then I'm a bit of a softie!

The video does explain a lot - but when you just see them with no explanation it is a bit scary!!
Also they look considerably better in the vid!

they look very phallic to me, like they have some sort of symbiotic one eyed relationship when nobody is looking.....................
