Mio received a ride-on car as a generous birthday gift from our friends, and she loves playing with it — honking the horn, turning the ignition, pushing the car around, and of course riding on it. The other day, she ran off to the other room after playing with it and when I entered the living room, I was greeted by a curious sight.
She had placed a pack of travel wipes on the seat of the car, and propped up a panda doll keychain on top of those wipes. It was all stacked quite neatly, right at the front of the seat, by the steering wheel. I was both amused and perplexed… what did it all mean?
Did Mio sit the panda on top of the wipes as a “booster seat” so that it could reach the steering wheel? Probably not… I’m pretty sure her one year old brain is not thinking that complexly yet, and that it’s just a coincidence… but I like entertaining the idea! Who knows how those little gears are turning in that little head?
