9. My last one used to hide behind the drapes all the time.

But his tail betrayed him.

17. My cat hides behind curtains,

where she thinks she can watch me without being seen.

The curtains are semi sheer.

3. LOL,

One of my favorite books to read with our granddaughter is “Have You Seen Elephant?” by David Barrow. The elephant is really good at playing Hide ‘n Seek, just like this one is!

4. I think I may have read that book to a grandchild

Sounds familiar.

5. "If I close my eyes, you can't see me."

That's what my kids thought when they were very young. If they couldn't see me, they thought they were invisible.

6. They're so cute when they do that

Kids do such cute things. When mine were little I was so busy I didn't have enough time to relish all of those special moments. The grandchildren were/are pure joy.

18. My favorite kid age is 4. They are

sort of developing some cause-effect "logic," but get it screwed up a bit. The results are hilarious.

10. Why do elephants paint their toenails red?

So they can hide in cherry trees. But you've never seen an elephant in a cherry tree, you say? See, it works!!

13. ooooooh, I dunno about that last one

Lots of chuckles with the first ones, and then a cringe.

14. That one was my little brother's favorite,

probably because it's kind of perverse in the way little boys find entertaining. Mine was:

Q: How do you know elephants have been having sex in your back yard?

A: Your garden is trampled and your garbage bag is missing.

16. My own "little boys" took a long time to grow up

They used to bounce lewd jokes off each other for what seemed like hours. I think they still do it, but not so much in front of me anymore. They're in their mid 30s.
