Only in Sweden(?)

Right now, on the national TV channel's children's programme they show how to make a self portrait from hare's droppings (and cardboard, paint and some wool roving).

Nope, not kidding - you just have to go out in the woods and collect them.

So, what do they use the hare droppings for? Face outline? Eyes? Mash them all up and make a 3d portrait?

Is anyone even suprised since we survived the lets-take-two-old-socks-and-make-a-childrens-program...?
Though I did actully like Lillstrumpa and Systeryster! :)

That's just wrong.

My theory of preference is that all those programs were part of a long term project to improve our chances of fighting off the Russians when they invaded. They wanted a population that would think that the hardship of fighting a war against a numerically superior better equipped enemy was no big deal, that saw deprivation as comforting. So mentally toughened that torture would be a waste of time, and that would view horrible POW-camps in Siberia as rest homes for the elderly.

The alternate explanations are worse, since they mostly involve the Elder Gods running a national TV channel, or in some cases there being pot dispensers in the staff cafeteria.

Yes, I guess that's where the paint comes in.

Face outline, mouth and eyes.

Staffan Westerberg is a genius, I adored and still adore "Vilse i Pannkakan". This is a "craft"-programme.

This is a new programme; you're supposed to do crafty things from stuff you find in nature. Since I watch quite a lot of children's programmes now I must say that those of our childhood were much better. Not than all of them, but there's nothing like the genius of Staffan Westerberg, or "Från A till Ö", or "Kapten Zoom", or "dr. Krall". Luckily we have both "Från A till Ö" and "Vilse i Pannkakan" on DVD.

I loved "Vilse i pannkakan"! And the one before about the people living in boxes. And the little theatre. But most people look at me oddly when I say that...

Hare droppings! I guess they are mostly cellulosa, but still...

I also saw "Vilse" on the Swedish antenna. It made an impression.

Did you ever see "Reparatørene" aka "Pompel & Pilt" in Sweden, or was that too unpedagogic?

IAWTC. :)

I think I need a Vilse icon. :)

No, not familiar.
