It’s definitely hard to think like a 6-year-old at times. Probably even harder to think like a stuffed tiger..…but Watterson seems to get it right every time! The man’s phenomenal! It must be telepathy or something.
I remember when they used to put neat prizes in cereal. We had a bunch of the walking camels at one time. You would drop a weight over the edge of the table and the camel would walk to the edge of the table. As i recall, it would stop at the edge and never fell off the table. Of how I wish we knew back then how valuable those little toys would be today! We would have saved a bunch of them. Same goes for those old metal lunch boxes with the thermos in them. We had a bunch of the Disney school bus ones as well as my Flying Nun and my brothers with Gentle Ben and The Flintstones. Ah memories….

Don’t be so sure Calvin, Mom and Dad may still have their Little Orphan Annie decoder pins.-Be sure to drink your Ovaltine.

About the only “food” item with a prize these days is Cracker Jacks, and the “toy” just ain’t what it used to be…
