Love the Richard Scarry website. As I was looking around it I remembered that this summer at a toy store I found wonderful Richard Scarry temporary tattoos and I had the passing thought that maybe I could find more on the website. To my surprise there is no Shop attached to the site at all, just lots of free printable games, greeting cards and vehicles you can print out and colour. How absolutely delightful.

I loved the Richard Scarry website too - such a big part of my childhood. I didn’t know his son was named Huck and was the inspiration for Huckle Cat! We named our orange cat Huckle and she was a real rabble rouser. Thanks for sharing!

Oh, frosted acetate. That's a sign you're getting old when you remember things younger people have never encountered. Did you have overhead projectors in school? Think overhead sheets. Or, if you played with Shrinky Dinks as a kid, it's similar to that (lightly textured, slightly opaque sheets of clear plastic, only without the ability to shrink and get thicker). Can't wait to see what you did with it! I loved Richard Scarry books as a kid and fondly shared them with my own daughters. I'll definitely check out the site!
