So Carson is a wily soon-to-be 5. Up until now, he's been largely unaware of commercials, treating them as run-around breaks during his favorite Spongebob episodes. But lately, I've noticed him paying rapt attention to these interruptions, and the remarks he makes afterward get me tickled.
"Mom! If you get a stain on your shirt, or Dad's shirt, you get that Tide Pen! It takes it off, see?"
"Mom! What's cardboard??" why sweetie?? "Because! Cardboard is an upgrade for Mampax!" *i may trademark this, don't steal it.
"Mom! We need to get that pediasure--it says it makes kids grow up big and strong! And it tastes great, too!!"
Let it be known that he's only allowed a certain amount of tv every day, and if we're otherwise occupied and can't watch, he doesn't get rollover minutes. So this is literally during the small window he is allowed. Advertising certainly works in this house!
