Wait till they're older and they stop playing with the box and roll their eyes at the gift! Good times.

Exactly. My 7yo asked for a karaoke machine that was white and it had all these flashing lights on it. It looked cool but the reviews were horrendous on it. So we got a black one that you can hook a tablet up to and has thr lights. We were thinking hey she just got a tablet for her birthday, this will be great. Yeah she unwraps the box and immediately says what happened to the white one with the lights? My wife and I were like WTF. Of course now that she see's how it works she loves it but its always amazing the things get fixated on when it comes to toys.

PS- Cant wait to see how many typical OT responses we get saying my 7yo is racist and is only happy with white toys.
