The world was full of wonder till you opened my eyes
9 years ago
"Look, look, I found out how it works!" squeaked Zee-Zee, waving the magic colour paint mat that had fascinated all the cubs at the daycare that morning - you just paint on it with water, and different colours appear by magic! "Look, see, there's colour stuff underneath it, and the water just makes the top bit go see-through!" Zee-Zee concluded triumphantly.
The other cubs looked at the mangled paint mat (Zee-Zee had had to rip it apart quite a bit to discover exactly how the whole thing worked) and didn't seem entirely impressed. "I liked it more when it was magic..." someone said.

No worries, Zee-Zee. Everyone knows you meant well. :)
Cute, fun, and thoughtful story. It's always sad when the 'magic' behind something goes away. So many wonders seem less wondrous once they become explained. Though, this never stops us from wanting to know all we can.
I do hope the Advent Calendar has been going well. Are you happy with it this year?
