What a tune!

Meet Gordi.

Gordi's interests are t cooking, cleaning, singing and having friends pop in.

Gordi enjoys it when there are not people being critical of his missed keys and hits that open into another unknown song.  Pity Gordi is tone deaf.

As the people in the know say being tone deaf may have something to do with High Functions Autism disorder [Asbergers].  Having said that it explains a lot about Gordi's behaviour patterns as well as the problems with spelling, reading writing and just plain not hearing you as you speak!

Talking teddy bear to promote Scots Gaelic

The Gaelic teddy will repeat words for colours, shapes and numbers

A teddy bear that repeats Gaelic words for colours, numbers and shapes is being made to help encourage greater use of the language.

The toy has been developed by Western Isles-based publisher Acair.

Aimed at children aged six months and over, the teddy is based on a bear that speaks Irish Gaelic.

Acair's Agnes Rennie said the new bear supported Gaelic organisation Bord na Gaidhlig's hopes of getting more youngsters to speak the language.

She told BBC Radio Scotland: "Bord na Gaidhlig has made it very clear over the last few months that they are really giving priority to working not just with pre-school children, but early stages.

"If you are able to engage with young children, and more importantly their parents, at that stage it can be hugely important in how they feel about the language and how they use the language from then on."

Respond to cuddles

The Gaelic teddy is not the Highlands and Islands first brush with interactive cuddly toys.

In 2007, there was a plan for a robot teddy that could interact with its owner and could alert medical staff to changes in a sick child's condition to be tested in the area.

Huggable, which was fitted with sensors, was being developed by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the US.

The project had support from Highlands and Islands Enterprise (HIE).

It was to have technology installed that would allow the teddy to respond to cuddles and recognise its owner as they approached it.

The first designs were shown to nursery children in Avoch in the Black Isle in 2006.

A little history from Britian teddy Bears

Childhood favourites, Winnie the Pooh and Paddington Bear are as British as tea on the lawn or a rainy bank holiday.

Although teddies were invented in Germany and the US in 1902, it was the British who took the teddy bear to their hearts and opened bear making factories all over the country.

By the end of the 20th Century, they could not compete with the cheap bears imported from China and most of them closed down.

Of all the 30 or so teddy factories that once existed in Britain, only one still remains. Nestled in the Shropshire countryside, Merrythought Ltd has been making bears since 1930.

Creating a Teddy Bear through a balloon medium

Teddy Bears are easily created through using a balloon.There are several tricks that are important that are trade secrets.

The main one is to lightly dust your hands with either talcum powder (baby ones are really good fine powders to use) or a corn flower dusting. These powers inhibit the static electricty so easily transfered to the balloons through weather, electric cables or clothing.

The second hint is to not 'fill' the balloon so that they are hard to touch. The balloon is rubber. Too much tension on the rubber equals a rupture. Therefore you have a bang about to happen. The balloon holder will be upset. Upset children are bad for business!!! So the child gets a second ballon, then a third. By this time there is a retetive pattern set.

If you are to draw on the balloon use clearly identifyable non toxic pens.
