Little Johnny Stories I:
When my son Johnny was six months old I bought him a toy
called Klack ‘n Klatter for his first Christmas. It was a triangular shaped
little car in beautiful primary colors. I was a new daddy and proud of my $10
Christmas gift.
He, of course, had no idea what “Christmas gift” meant, so
naturally he didn’t know what to do with it. I remember thinking at the time,
‘little kids, even ones as brilliant as MY son, need to learn everything, even
what to do with a Christmas present.” So we unwrapped it for him. And when he
took the car out of the box he proceeded to play with – the box!?
