Last Monday, me and a colleague from language school went to a Danish shop, with things for the home, to make time until our next lesson. While strolling through the place, she called my attention to these little, funny, happy dudes called the Hoptimists. In the following minutes we must have whacked more than a dozen of them in the head to make them bounce up and down, while giggling like children.
To find more about Bimble, Bumble and the rest of the family go to their home page here.

My father bought a red wide-eyed one of these for me when I was 5, when there was a Scandinavian trade show in Chicago in 1968. I had it until it broke 40 years later. I am so glad to see this web site and to get another red Bimble! I thought I'd never see him again! Thank you! He was one of my favorite things--I carted him everywhere I went for my whole life. : )
