Do-Nut

Those of you who know Sahil know his love of the Sound of Music. He'd like to share with you his newest transcreation.

The Chipmunk

Sahil has several little animals that have some kind of magic. When you squeeze them or press them in some particular spot or shake them or stare them down, they begin to sing, make some noise germane to their species, or otherwise fool him into thinking he has a little friend. Sahil has many toys like this but among them, and he loves them all. Two are his favorites. The first is a big duck that plays "Singin' in the Rain" that his Renee Aunty gave him. The one featured in this video is a yoddling chipmunk purchased in some European airport by his Gayatri Atya. You'd think as he develops he would leave these toys behind for a Rubik's Cube or a chemistry set or something, but as you'll see, the love remains strong. It also seems to cause him to channel James Brown...
