So cute! The Picture on the wall that is. But I’m sure your nephew is cute too, my son played that game too. If you ever figure out the rules, let us know, I’d love to beat my son at it for once! heh
That’s just too cute… I have a daughter who is 3 and she does similar things like this. Unfortunately, it usually also involves singing her own version of “Let It Go” on a loop. I love my daughter, but I’ll be the first to admit I love being deaf as well, as it gives me an advantage my wife doesn’t have: I can turn my “ears” off and not hear the constant singing! (insert evil laughter as my wife slaps me upside my head for turning off my hearing aid)
By the way, epic beard and hair in the corner thumbnail of yourself!
Can’t remember where, but… a few years ago I saw a picture (maybe a vid?) of a toddler sitting in front of a magazine trying to use multi-finger gestures on the pictures and getting irritated. The mother said something like: “Yep, she likes to scrunch and expand pictures on my tablet and she can’t for the life of her understand why all pictures aren’t like that.”
It’s funny and cute that she mistakes a magazine for a pad — until you realize that in the world in which that little girl will live — it’s likely that all (or nearly all) pictures will do that. The moving picture on the box of Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Beans will be something she sees in her lifetime – and it will be an everyday occurrence for her children. What will the world be like when all physical media ceases to exist? Or will it? Will there ever come a day in which people will live full lives never having picked up a book or hung a picture? We’re too tactile to completely do away with ALL physical media, aren’t we?
Check back in a thousand years for the answer to that one, I suppose.

Mind F. indeed.
The tiny Wil-face in the bottom left corner is priceless.
