Babies Are No Good At Playing Fetch


(YouTube link)

This poor corgi wants to play fetch, but for some reason the weird bald human just will not throw his toy for him. Nevertheless, he just keeps trying.

A Portal-Themed Kid's Room



If your youngster loves Portal, you might want to take some design tips from James Farr, who made his son this amazing Portal bedroom. Aside from the obvious touches seen in this picture, he also has a bunch of cool posters related to the game. Now there's a kid who loves his bedroom.

The Ultimate Geek Toy



Is your little geek too cool for a Barbie Jeep but still dying for a sweet set of wheels? Well then, better head over to ThinkGeek before Christmas to get the ultimate nerd child present this year, the drivable Dalek toy. Of course, we have plenty of great child gifts over on the Neatoshop as well.

Baby Harley Quinn



Sure she looks like a sleeping angel right now, but just wait until she wakes up and sees Batman is next to her. Then, oh boy, we're all in trouble.

Baby Dressed As A French Bulldog



Plenty of people dress up their dogs for Halloween, but not many parents dress the baby up like the family dog. Given how cute it is though, maybe more of us should start doing this. Instructions to make your own are at the link.

The 15 Cutest Geeky Baby Costumes

Last year, Neatorama presented the 13 geekiest Halloween costumes, and while there were a few cute kiddo costumes in the mix, overall, the list was distinctively short on adorability. Hoping to remedy that problem this year, I have opted to do a round up on the epitome of cute costumes, baby Halloween outfits. Don’t worry, there is still all the delightful geekiness you’ve come to expect from Neatorama and NeatoBambino, it’s just that it's about ten times cuter this time around.

Harry Potter




There is no way this little one is not violating the ministry’s Decree for the Reasonable Restriction of Underage Sorcery. Just look at the way his mother, Christine Penguino, is taunting him with that broom. He was born to be a rebel and Flickr user ZarrSadus has the photographic evidence to prove it.

Update: Our very own Neatobambino reader Christine is mother to this adorable wizard and she has offered us a link with another cute image of baby Potter.

Chun Li




This little Street Fighter’s specialty move must be killing her victims with cuteness. Of course, with a face like that, her enemies must be dropping like flies. It’s amazing Flickr user San Diego Shooter was able to get this picture before he was overwhelmed with the desire to pinch Chun Li’s cheeks until his fingers fell off.

Wolverine




Just like Logan, this little guy has such a bad attitude that even his dad is wary of those adamantium claws. No doubt about it, San Diego Shooter is one brave Flickr member.

Star Wars




ThinkGeek is always a great source to get your tyke ready for his journey into geekdom and their Star Wars costumes are just one step in the right direction.

Star Trek




Of course, if you’d prefer your little one learn how to speak Klingon from a young age, you’d probably be better off with these adorable Star Trek costumes.

Doctor Who




If your baby seems to regenerate a new personality every few months, it might not be their fault. You might have given birth to the world’s newest and cutest time lord like little Valentine here.

Supergirl




Flickr user marniejoyce was lucky to catch this shot of Supergirl right before she took a nap. After all, stopping a bank robbery in diapers is hard work.

Nacho Libre




He may be small, but this little Nacho Libre has all the passion needed to win the hearts and minds of his fans. Of course, he probably still won’t win the big match, but he’s still a winner in my eyes. I’ve looked all over to find an original source for this costume, but I can’t. If you know who originally posted it, let me know and I’ll post a link here.

Storm Trooper




Just like when Han donned this enemy uniform, this little guy, shot at Comic Con by Flickr user Gabriel Madrigal Photography, is too cool for the face-hiding helmet.

Princess Leia




With her knitted braids and white onesie, baby Princess Leia is certainly one of the most comfortable geeky costumed babes. She even had help from mommy so she pose with her light saber for Flickr user San Diego Shooter.

Yoda




Love crafts and the teachings of a little green Jedi? Then perhaps you should head over to Etsy seller demulcentarts’ store to check out her adorable knitted Yoda caps.

Incredible Hulk




Even with all those muscles, I don’t think this Hulk could smash much. Even so, he still looks a lot happier than the Hulk we’re used to seeing.

Flash




Sure Flickr user midiman’s nephew can hardly walk, but you’d better believe he can crawl faster than you can run.

Kiss




Does your tike seem to rock and roll all night and party every day, leaving you beyond sleep deprived? Well, celebrate his inner rock star with this adorable Kiss costume from Spirit. And just in case you’re wondering, yes, they do carry all of the Kiss members’ costumes.

Doctor




Are you already certain your bundle of joy will grow up to be a doctor? Well then, get used to the way he looks in scrubs with this Baby, M.D. costume available from the Neatoshop.

Ok all you geek mommies and daddies, what was the best costume your baby ever wore? Are any of you planning to make your babies even geekier this Halloween?

Photos of Authors As Children



Everyone thinks their child will grow up to be spectacular, but few can even hope their child will have such a drastic impact on the world as these famous authors in photos from when they were children.

If you think this photo looks rather Kafkaesque, you're right...quite literally. In fact this is young Franz Kafka in 1888 at the age of five.

The Baby Godfather Meme



While no parent actually wants to see their child grow up to join the mafia, seeing an adorable little guy posing as The Godfather is simply precious.  While there's only one picture of this though guy, the many captions at the link are hilarious.

Tongues Are Gross



There's been an abundance of cute on the web, particularly lately. At least one site aims to counter this movement, and that is Ugly Overload. I've been waiting for a great post to share, and this quick collection of tongues is just what the doctor ordered...although, I have to say, I still find the giraffe tongue to be quite cute.

15 Teeny Tiny Animals



Why is it that cute things only get cuter as they get smaller? Whatever the reason, WebUrbanist has the ultimate list of cute animals, as it has the 15 smallest animals. Some of the animals are just tiny species and others are miniture individuals of their type, like the mini mini horse above. Let the cute wash over you like a tidal wave of flower petals and rainbows.

Girls Taste Better Than Boys



Ok, maybe that's a little misleading, but a recent study has shown that girls have a better sense of taste than boys. Boys require about 10% more sourness and 20% more sweetness to recognize flavors than girls require to taste the same flavor.

Itty Bitty Dinosaur Puzzle



Kelly Ferrell uses a laser to cut these adorable mammoths, there are also t-rexes, butterflies and more. They seem quite hard to put together once you get them, but the result is quite worth it and is certain to attract attention from anyone who sees them.
