Yesterday I went with the kids and their father (Mommy was sick) to the a Truck Show at the Children's Museum, which consisted of 20 or so trucks and other vehicles of different types (fire engine, train car, bulldozer, etc.) parked in the parking lot; the kids could climb in and on the vehicles. K had a great time- he recognized and could name all of the types of trucks, and liked "driving" them. D, though, was more interested in the "little things"- in the fire engine, he only wanted to buckle and unbuckle the seat belt. And in the stretch limo, he was completely unimpressed by the size of the limo, the seats facing sideways, or the window between the driver's seat and the passenger area--but he had a great time taking the champagne glasses out of the rack and lining them up on the windowsill!
Apparently, the "gestalt" of the experience was lost on him- but he sure enjoyed those details!
