Then start to swish it a little bit on the ground. You'll quickly notice if he's intrigued!</p> <p>This thing works on the same principle and our cats love it:</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Cat-Dancer-301-Charmer-Interactive/dp/B0002DHV16" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Cat-Dancer-301-Charmer-Interactive/dp/B0002DHV16</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-lo-scared-of#post-60657 Thu, 26 Jan 2012 14:28:06 +0000 banana 60657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The loud static noise the TV makes when we accidentally switch the input from TV to video.

Loud noises and people (other then her mommy and daddy and grandma) are the two biggies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-your-lo-scared-of#post-60646 Thu, 26 Jan 2012 14:16:59 +0000 Sha 60646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i just realized my 17-month-old is scared of a curly blue ribbon that came on one of his birthday presents. it was sticking out from a shelf in the kitchen and i would find him in there, staring at it, fascinated, but at a safe distance. if i tried to make him touch it, he would start shaking his head and backing away. once he did touch it and then he climbed into my lap and hid his face for 10 minutes. i have no idea what he thinks it is. it's kind of sad but equally hilarious to watch his reactions.</p> <p>is your LO scared of anything? </p>
