When Marty was a year old, we went to the zoo. We were trying to show him white tigers, but he was looking at a fat barrier rope with a crow on it. To a child so new to the world, both were equally rare and wondrous.
We can't always know what will be interesting or important to another person.
When my son was little, we would go to the Zoo and try to show him the animals--any animals. His attention was on the lights, grates and plumbing of the Zoo! He observed these everywhere we went, no matter the place!
