When my brother was a toddler one of his favorite toys was a push popper. When my sweet niece was old enough to have one, Mema and P-pa got one for her because her daddy loved it so much.
"Ha ha!!" I thought. "I've escaped that noisy fate! My favorite toy was my quiet little giraffe scooter."
And, God laughed!!
Here is Cora with her vintage push popper. This was a most accidental present. I was shopping for a kids' cd player for little missy. What I didn't know is that I'm totally behind the times. . . they don't really make kids' cd players. . .they make kids' ipod docks. Yeah, umm, no! I thought maybe I would have some luck finding the dinosaur I was looking for at a children's consignment store. While I was looking around, Cora wandered over to the toy section and found this bad boy. Once she figured out how to use it, she would not let it go. She pushed the blessed thing all over the store. In fact, I think it broke her heart a little when she had to hand it over to the salesman so I could pay for it! Nevertheless, there it was under the Christmas tree for little missy (and me ; ) to enjoy! Noisy Good Times!

My little Gracie LOVED the push popper. (I actually just gave ours away to goodwill because she got way to much for Christmas!) Her favorite thing to do was chase our dog around with it so get ready :) Your little Cora is just adorable!
