The World Through Two Year Old Eyes - False Advertising

This morning the girls sat down at the table to enjoy their breakfast. Erin brought to the table a box of Life cereal & some milk.

Kassidy looked at the box and proclaimed in her excited, yet sweet tone, "Strawberries! I want the strawberries!"

It took me a minute to figure out where the comment came from, but when I finally followed her eyes, I saw that she was looking at the cereal box. Shown in the spoon and in the bowl on the front of the box are lipstick red strawberries, floating gingerly on the top of the cereal.

It's surprisingly sad to see a young child learn the reality that the message doesn't always represent the product behind it.
