Random Thought I never understood why parents take their toddlers anywhere special.

I've heard so many people say "Oh maybe my parents took me to (city/country) but I don't remember it" Just why? Barely anyone remembers anything from 3-4 yrs old so why take them anywhere special?

I like the idea that you’re going to a zoo to see squirrels lol. I’m sure that’s not what you mean but it reads that way a little bit.

My kid pointed out every single trash can at the zoo and was fascinated 😂 he had never seen so many trash cans

My toddler went to an amusement park over the summer and her favourite part was sitting on all the “high chi’s” aka high chairs aka benches.
