Wow.

Thanks for posting this and clearing up the thread. (and hopefully stopping a needless Freep) I liked most of what they said except for having a electricity free night to help save the earth. (How about all lights on, cook in the fireplace and smoke out the neighborhood and eat off styrofoam plates instead?)

My wife is having an ongoing battle with Crayola.com regarding their ignoring Easter and Christmas with a total and complete lack of any spiritual aspect of either of these days. Crayola does recognize Kwaanza and Hanukkah. They have even told her via e-mail that they do not want to upset their non-Christian customers by even mentioning Christmas

I try to make it a point to patronize stores that actually use the dreaded "C" word in their ads. Too many companies just use the nebulous and meaningless "holidays."

Unfortunately, my kids are just over the age of most Fisher-Price toys, but it truly sounds like a worthy company of supporting.

Merry CHRISTmas

I don't think this would be a needless FREEP at all.

Weirdad had to do cull and search the web site for cursory references to the meaning of the Christmas holiday on the web site, whereas Fisher-Price has direct and straightforward explanations for the other two Holidays. There is not a "Traditions and Meanings" explanation for Christmas on the holiday web site of Fisher-Price like there is for Kwaanza and Hanukkah. Fisher-Price has chosen to ignore a straight-forward explanation of what Christmas really is all about.

I believe an appropriate response is to tell Fisher-Price in a very polite manner Christians deserve better, especially since Christians spend lots of their money on their product.
