Oh the things I have to look forward to!

Friday, September 10, 2010

I always enjoyed flying with Virgin because points what they loose in space and no free drinks, they at times, have been known to make up for with their animated safety talk. So naturally I got a kick out of these instructions on using the oxygen the other day:

"In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, masks will descend from the ceiling. Stop screaming, grab the mask, and pull it over your face. If you have a small child travelling with you, secure your mask before assisting with theirs. If you are travelling with more than one small child, pick your favourite."

(heard on Kulula Airlines, Johannesburg)

I have to admit -- I never thought about it before now but in the event of needing to use the oxygen mask on an airplane and having more than one small child, I will inevitably have to choose one to put the mask on first. If my children are anything like my sisters and I were, this could go very badly for me...

That's it. Before they learn to walk, they're going to have to learn to put on their own oxygen mask. You can buy play doctor's kits. Surely we can get a play air steward kit, complete with life jacket and oxygen mask! Come on Montessori toys? Melissa and Doug? Fisher Price? Anybody?
