No, that's not a spelling mistake. Toypography is a set of toy blocks, produced by stationery giant Kokuyo, which can spell out the names of animals in both Roman letters (yes, yes - the alphabet) AND kanji. But wait -there's more - the blocks can also form the shape of the animal being named. My favourite is fish, but bear is cool too. What a great way to spend quality time with your children and get some study in.

That's pretty cool. It must have been a headache getting everything to layout well in 3 different patterns.

That's surprisingly remarkable, though Heisig must be turning in his, um, chair.

Those things are really cool, but they are a bit on the pricey side. I guess only rich kids will be able to buy them.
