mine has always been a inspectorof quilts and materials but also if i am reading a newspaper they would lay on it. they liked it to play with cause of the crinkly sound i think. they also do that with xmas paper at xmas we let them play and had to be careful when we entered the room again not to step on one.also in order to wrap they would have to be closed out of the room cause they want to lay in the middle of the paper. those were fun memiories. our one leftnow is out grown all of that at 16.
