So the lad bought himself a Minecraft Turtle Base to play with. It came with a bunch of stickers which I dutifully and carefully applied for him. One was absent...
The pictures on the box showed a red carpet section on one platform.
There was no corresponding sticker.
He was (briefly) unhappy about this.
Mary has knitted him a red carpet for the turtle base out of Softyak wool.
I hope it's soft enough for his small plastic turtle...
