One morning recently, we found this Mutant Ninja Turtle playset on our front porch. Next to it was a case full of Magnetix. No note. No indication of the source. Just two very nice toys.
I suspect that my next door neighbor was divesting herself of the remnants of her annual visit from her grandkids, but am not sure of that.
Because I normally see the half-empty glass first before forcing myself to see the half-full glass, I felt sad because these toys have been brought to a house where Mutant Ninja Turtles and Magnetix are passe'.
How long did my children play with these things - the same things I said they wouldn't like? 6.5 hours - and that was just the first day.
