Commercials

Morgan and I were sitting in the office working on the computer tonight. Eli comes running into the office asking us to buy some sort of magic ball that you can do tricks with all over your body.

Morgan reminded Eli that commercials try to get you to buy things, and that E doesn't need that ball, but is saving up money for a disc golf bag.

Eli responds that he doesn't want to buy the ball, he wants us to buy it for him. 


Later he comes running in again saying, "Mom, Dad, do you know what the best bed in America is?"  He then goes on to explain it is one where you can jump on the bed and have a glass of juice on the bed too and it won't tip over. He thought that we should buy that too.  

Our son is definitely influenced by commercials. It just gives us one more reason to not let him watch very much T.V.
