"Batteries not included!"
I bought my three-year-old son a 24-piece Spongebob puzzle the other day. He has put it together at least 50 times since then. I'm pleased he's having fun with a quiet, educational toy.

He just brought the box in here for me to look at.

"This says nick.com," he said, pointing to the web address listed on the box. He was correct.

"What does this say?" he asked, pointing to some tiny fine print.

"I don't know," I answered. "It's too small for me to read from here."

"It says 'batteries not included'!" he announced.

"It's a puzzle. It doesn't need batteries."

"No! It says 'batteries not included'!" The child is adamant.

:rofl:

6. *scratching head*
I don't get it. The OP wasn't bragging about her kid being a genius so I'm not sure what your post is supposed to mean. Maybe I'm overly sensitive this morning, but your response seems unnecessarily snarky. Forgive me if I'm misinterpreting.
