My kids and I were at the doctor's office, waiting.  You know how that goes.  My seven-year-old son decided to do something constructive to pass the time.  He found some pails and miscellaneous objects in a toy bin.
"Mommy, guess which pail has the bobble head under it."  He switched the pails around.
"That one," I said when he was done.
"No fair!  You cheated."
"How did I cheat?"
"I don't know.  Close your eyes."
He did his thing, but I heard some interesting shuffling sounds.  I knew he was up to something.
"Okay, open your eyes.  Which one?"
"None of them," I said.  
"Hey!  You cheated!"  
"No I didn't.  I heard you move something by the plant over there.  You didn't say I had to block my ears!"
"Close your eyes and block your ears."
I did.
"Now which one?"
I guessed correctly.
"Cheater!"
"Nope.  I'm just good!"
