The tower falls. CLONK. His hands go toasty, then hot, then RED HOT.

What happens
The tallest tower in the lounge room wobbles, and CLONK. His hands go toasty, then HOT, then RED HOT, all the way up to his hair. Before he knows it, he's stomping and blaming Moose.
Then comes the quiet, and Dad's “You okay?”, and a way to cool hot hands that little ones can use again and again. For every child whose feelings sometimes get bigger than they are.
