Have you all seen this article? While these parents obviously have way too much time on their hands, the reason behind their actions are good:
"Because in the age of iPads and Netflix, we don’t want our kids to lose their sense of wonder and imagination. In a time when the answers to all the world’s questions are a web-search away, we want our kids to experience a little mystery. All it takes is some time and energy, creativity, and a few plastic dinosaurs.
Childhood is fleeting, so let’s make sure it’s fun while it lasts."

I love how they write their kids' responses to the different set-ups, too.
