Info from Licensor: "Dad’s elaborate prank on all of us. I went into the garage and noticed nothing out of the ordinary, then as I opened the back van door, cotton started spilling out onto the garage floor. I quickly shut the door and sat in the driver’s seat waiting for my son. He got in on the passengers side and his eyes went huge, he covered his mouth and said gosh! with a giant smile on his face. We continued laughing all the way to school and made jokes about Dad having to clean it up. We were so surprised and my son couldn’t stop raving about how this morning had been the best ever. Returning home, it was just about time to get my eldest daughter to school. I knew she and her little sisters would be overjoyed by the cotton explosion in the car. They were just as shocked as my son and I, and extremely happy to say the least. They eagerly wanted to have a giant cotton fight and continue to come up with ideas of what they are going to do with this huge amount of cotton later in the day. The entire school ride was a playful mess, and it will undoubtedly be an unforgettable moment. Before we cleaned up the massive cotton covering our van, we took the kids for a short joyride around the block. We allowed them to sit in any spot they desired, surrounded by the soft pillow like prank, and when we returned home, we let them go wild and play to their heart’s content."
