He trapped me again! The other day we were riding in the car and Keona began to recount the latest Berenstein Bears episode. It was called "Brother and Sister Get the Gimmies". Keona asked why the parents got mad at the kids in the store. In a nutshell: it was because they went to shop for food and the kids kept asking for toys. Before going to the store, the parents had reminded the cubs that there would be no treats that day, so when the cubs began asking for this toy and that toy the parents got angry. I explained that to Keona and he seemed to understand...and then he baited his trap. He noted that the cubs had also asked for chocolate bunnies. i said yes and he said, "they're not toys; they're food! So the cubs really shouldn't have gotten in trouble for asking for chocolate bunnies. I feebly admitted they were, in fact, not toys, but were still considered not part of a typical GROCERY LIST. No matter, they are not toys. In Keona's mind, they are fair game on any grocery shopping trip.
