If you are unfamiliar with Giant Microbes...they are stuffed animal versions of bacteria, protozoans, cells....and anything else small.
Well, since I have quite a collection of these toys in my living room, I was browsing their new holiday microbe Christmas tree ornaments today (with the limited edition gold amoeba!) and I noticed that they have a set of aquatic-themed animals as well.....I might have to get the algae and the paramecium!

When my niece and nephew were small and learning to talk, they used to come over and play with my collection of stuffed microbes. They'd bring them up to me one by one, ask me what they were called and then run around the house yelling their name "SALMONELLA!!!!" "GIARDIA!!!" "E COLI!!!!"
Needless to say, I did not collect any of the STD giant microbes since it was not uncommon for one of the kids to say later on how much fun they had at their Aunt's house playing with her Salmonella.
