Me neither! Actually stripes have never been out of style just given a new twist in a kids FROG bath line. When choosing hand towels it makes sense to pay a little more for a heavier quality towel. Some towels are perfect as a decorator statement but if you want to use and need to wash frequently you need something more substantial like the FROG line in my store. These towels are a little larger than average and a lot heavier. They should take all the wear and tear your little ones can give. Not recommended for mopping up the floor or wiping off the car :o) Available in my store : http://www.davyjonestreasures.com
