I don't have any grandchildren, so I'll have to emulate the actions of the grandma in this ad with my godchildren instead....
"Dear Milo and Iris,
I am so happy to learn that you love taking pictures. I will never forget how thrilled I was to finally get a Polaroid One-Step Land Camera with cutting edge technology like the Q-light flash and a faux-leather carrying case. To encourage your passion, I am adding this camera to the Kodak Instamatic 101 I got you for Christmas last year- I even found a few flash cubes on E-Bay for that one!"
And when they are old enough, I know they'll respond:
"Dear Uncle John,
Thanks for another clunky piece of outdated plastic and metal for which I can't find film. It actually looks pretty nice on the shelf and is a good conversation piece during get-togethers. Fortunately I can take infinitely better photos with my phone than I could with these museum pieces even when they were new lol!"
I am the best godfather ever.
