Although IM and texting and tweets may remake standard English, a Chinese toy company has apparently decided typos should be introduced to infants.

The company manufactured soft, colorful alphabet blocks with at least three typos: "yatch" for "yacht," and "umberlla" for "umbrella," while "X'mas tree," with the apostrophe, stood in for "X."

Kudos to the British granny who spotted the goofs, complained to the store that sold them, and forced them to remove the toys from the shelves in their 382 stores. But aren't umbrellas called "bumbershoots" over there?
