Eject! Eject!



There is a reason why we have saved  several of our children's most beloved toys. The 20+ year old Little Tikes red rocking airplane is one of Annie's favorites.
Its body and wings sit low to the ground, has "control levers," cock pit style steering wheel and rocks in all direction. With Annie at the helm Tim narrates and controls the flight : "Ok we are on our final approach coming into JFK. Oh no, it's getting rough, turbulence ahead, we're heading into a spin. Losing control, eject! Eject! Eject!" After two flights as soon as Annie hears "eject" she dives to the floor and rolls in laughter. After two weeks I swear she understands every word we say to her.
