So this is the "Binky Tree" at Mosvanet Lake in Stavanger. It is apparently tradition here to take your child and their pacifier here when the child is ready to give up the pacifier. The pacifier is then added to the collection of all the others on the tree. It is a bit of a strange sight, and the little notes and ribbons attached to them all with the date and age of the child are also interesting. We were surprised to see how many of them were three years old when giving up the pacifier. But then, diapers here are sold to handle kids up to 32 kg (70.5 lbs)!
