Mashin' Out

Earlier this summer we took a picnic to the park to enjoy the weather.  Under a shade tree we had sandwiches and played Mille Borne with our friends Chris and Mandy.  A good time was had by all.  We noticed that there were a ton of Power Wheels out that day.  Turns out that parents take their toddlers to the park, rent a Power Wheels for them, and tool them around the park.  That's right...the kids have no power over the cars, the parents just remote control them wherever they want.
                                      






This little one's father thought it would be funny to ram her car onto the curb and onto our blanket.  She did not find the humor.  I immediately thought of The Simpson's episode where Homer's brother invents something that could translate what toddlers are thinking, before they can speak.
