We went back to the playground at the mall today, but he wasn't interested in the climbing toys or the other kids. All he wanted to do was look at or get in the mechanical cars. Mom said it was the same when she took him last, but when he was in one and the two quarters were put in to start it up, he started to cry. I let him play on them for about twenty minutes today, until there were too many other kids with paying mothers who wanted to use them.
