Olivia is really into commercials. She is always telling me about something she saw on a commercial and how it could help me. The thing is, my kids really don't see that many commercials. I let them watch a few things on Saturday mornings and then they watch little shows we have recorded which don't even have commercials. Since she has been learning to read she is noticing things all over the place now.
I was glancing through a magazine just the other day and she was looking over my shoulder and suddenly she gets wide eyes and says, "Hey mom! That's the money you could be saving on your car insurance!" She saw this:
Then there was one time and she told me that I really need "these clip thingy's that go in your hair. They come in sparkly colors. I found out later that she meant these:
I might actually be able to use one of these.
Then once when driving with Joey she exclaimed, "Look daddy! It's Sizzler." She has never eaten at a Sizzler in her life.
Then when my mom was just here she said something about tap water. Olivia commented, "It's like that steam mop. It uses water from the tap and you can clean all your floors. You should really get one of those mom."
My child is already sucked into consumerism.

I can totally relate to this post...Aubrey and even poor Weston are totally sucked into commercials as well.
