  24. omg this is brilliant. And since my son (4 yrs old) is doing Readingeggs.com now, and learning short words like this, well, these can be Reading Eggs! He'll love the tie-in.

    We are also doing Chinese... and this would totally work for putting together either radicals to form new characters, or two characters to form new words. Thanks for the idea... just in time for when bags of eggs like this are in dollar stores everywhere!
