Ryan Tostobil

Seriously who is this Ryan and how the heck did he manage to woo my son into an obsession??

Ian is really getting to my nerves with this Ryan Toys Review business. I mean, it's bad enough that Ryan makes millions out of sheer advertising alone, but does he really have to be so addictive for small kids???

Anyway, ever since Ian found out that we can show YouTube videos on TV, he's been asking for "Ryan Tostobil" all day long. If he doesn't get it on TV, he asks for it on our phones. If we don't give it to him, he doesn't throw a tantrum or stuff like that. Instead, he either waits for us to get distracted and then 'steal' our phones from under our noses, or tug on our heartstrings by giving us the 'puppy eyes', pretend to merajuk or ask sadly "So what do I watch? You're watching TV... so what do I watch, ha?" *chuckles* I've tried everything to distract him; physical play, colouring, even baking! But he still ends up pining over darn Ryan. (That sounds so wrong, but you know what I mean.)

When we went to Europe, we hid the tablet and lied to him that we sent it to the 'shop' to get it fixed. The exciting trip was an excellent opportunity for him to forget about the darn tablet without the withdrawal symptoms... but just today he asked, "Why is my tablet so long?" (Why is my tablet taking so long to be fixed?")

Ryan Tostobil, please give this poor mummy a break! *sigh*

The adorable addict.

    1. Tuh la, Aiden pun suka tengok review of games like Roblox and stuff, tapi dia takde la kemaruk macamnie sekali. Ian nie dah kira tahap addicted. Pening kepala macammane nak suruh dia lupa kat si Ryan nie.

    1. Exactly! Why can't they be hooked on a slightly more educational channel. I see zero benefit in watching Ryan play with toys (other than the headache that Mummy get when they request for similar toys)!

    1. That's why the family makes millions just from making videos of them opening toys! :)
