Description

One kiddie ride I saw offered a great way study children. This ride had a few small helicopter replicas for different branches of public service. I would like to have photographed all the choppers but could not get the right angle on some.

Do not know why but boys ran for this silver one for Seal Team 6, girls passed it by.

As I watched children choosing which copter to ride, I couldn't help wondering if they had already chosen something that would appeal to them in adult life. For example, some chose the Seal Team 6 copter. Another chose the Police chopper, and so on. These children were making it known which ones they preferred. Parents tried to get them into the first one they came to but the children ran to the copter of their preference. That told me a lot.
