The Proof is in the Playing

Delightful daughter-in-law Julie came up with a new aphorism. She was talking to my delightful daughter about some of the delightful presents she sent to my delightful granddaughter, and learned that she, delightful granddaughter, was still playing with them. Which caused her (delightful daughter-in-law, delightful daughter and delightful granddaughter) all to exhibit more delight. This gives rise to an observation: the only real way to judge the appropriateness of a toy is by observing how the kid plays with it. Hence, the power and value of the aphorism: the proof is in the playing.
