We were watching the Disney classic Alice in Wonderland last night (DS is currently obsessed with all things Alice). He said to me, "I have noticed that in cartoons, the things that have outlines are the things that move." I looked, and sure enough, the characters had black outlines and the nonmoving background stuff did not. Same thing on a modern cartoon. OK, perhaps this is common knowledge to people who know anything about cartooning (not me), but I was impressed by this observation. Anyone else find that their kiddos have amazing powers of observation or attention to detail? (Must add - this amazing power only works for something DS5 is interested in - if I tell him the shoe he's seeking is right in front of him, he will not see it.)
