National Goof Off Day is this Saturday. Since I have been telling the same three knock-knock jokes for years now, I think it’s time to find a new way to celebrate this holiday. Lucky for me, Klutz has an array of offerings to bring out my inner goof. Here are some of my all-time favorites:
The Encyclopedia of Immaturity (Ages 8+)
This is the ultimate how-not-to-grow-up guide. The Encyclopedia of Immaturitycontains more than 300 entries: How to Skip a Stone, How to Do a Wheelie, How to Hang a Spoon from Your Nose, How to Really Annoy Your Older Sibling — all painstakingly explicated and illuminated with full-color photographs, illustrations, diagrams, and the occasional footnote.
The World According to Klutz (Ages 8+)
Help defend today’s youth against the painful consequences of growing up, with this three-book boxed set that captures our ever-so-slightly subversive streak. This is pure, unfiltered Klutz, in a conventional paperback format.
The Encyclopedia of Immaturity: This is lovingly referred to as the “Short Attention-Span Edition,” presenting the best and most essential life skills and activities from the best-selling two volume set of Encyclopedias.
The Klutz Book of Inventions: This is the Hall of Fame Edition, featuring the most mind-blowing contraptions culled from our immature take on engineering.
The Greatest Facts in the History of Facts: This is a book full of mind-blowing realities, guaranteed to provide a lifetime of conversation starters. It’s the truth’s greatest hits, according to Klutz.
Straw Shooter Jets (Ages 8+)
Fold an air force powered by your own air. Straw Shooter Jetscomes with everything young aviators need to make a fleet of puff-propelled flyers. Once the jet is mounted on a special launch straw, it only takes a concentrated breath to send it soaring.
OOM readers, how will you celebrate National Goof Off Day?
