There is so much more to it than puffy goodness saturated with some type of fruit/vegetable flavoring.
When spread across the top of a high chair appropriately, it can bring at least 5 minutes of joy to an 8 month old. She just laughs at herself as she eats them. Loving the independence that comes with feeding herself. She is very intentional with her selection and clutches onto these things as if her life depended on it.
And well, they don't leave major messes like carrots do.
The toy train.
To the eye it looks as if it can go on wooden tracks.
But to a three year old, it can fly. It can sing. It can talk back to you. It can be your best-friend. It can bring hours of entertainment to you and your imagination.
It can be the one thing that you are looking forward to after school (except a snack of course).
And they can cause you to make the silliest faces, too.
