Kiddo Roulette

Violet, Auntie Coles and I went to get ice cream, so Violet was happy.  We got our order and went to sit down.  I picked a table with a toy carousel on it, figuring that it would occupy Violet if she finished her ice cream before us.

She consumed about half of her cup of ice cream, which is pretty much her typical dessert ration.  Then she started in on the toy carousel.  It was plastic circus tent about the size of a basketball with animals in a carousel track under it.  On top of the tent was a large button that when pressed started the animals running on the carousel track.

Violet started pressing the button and was fascinated watching the animals.  She started and watched it run dozens of times in the few minutes after her ice cream, while Auntie Coles and I consumed ours.  

After a while, it started to be a kind of roulette, Violet would get excited about which animal finished facing her.  "Yay, rabbit," or "Yah, duck," she'd say.

Auntie coles hit the button and started the roulette.  She and Violet watched as the carousel landed on the duck.  "The duck?  I don't want the duck," Auntie Coles said, and she started the carousel again.

The carousel came up duck again.  "Why do I keep getting the duck?" Auntie Coles asked.  

Violet took the carousel and manually spun it until the rabbit faced them.  "There, I fixed it!" she said.
