Oven mitts

Leif continues to enjoy taking things out of the kitchen drawers and throwing them on the floor -- and on rare occasions, even putting a few of them back. (All right, admittedly, what he would generally *prefer* to do when playing in the kitchen is to climb up on the low bar on the front of the oven and try to turn all the burner knobs, but when I manage to dissuade him from doing that, emptying drawers is a reasonable consolation activity.)

On this particular day, he found the oven mitts, and even managed to figure out how to put them on. Not rocket science, I know, but I'm not sure he's ever seen an adult put them on, since I don't generally turn the oven on when he is around. Maybe oven mitts are just one of those things that are intuitive for toddlers, like iPhones.
