    Mom knows when her kid’s doing something that needs her undivided instantaneous attention.

    Well, I mean, Cal was only trying to ‘tailor’ the furniture to his personal height. What’s so bad about that?

    “Play a board game?” Unless you’re willing to play too, Mom, it’s hard to play board games alone, and Calvin’s an only child. I once tried to play checkers against myself. No fun.

    A kid with a saw has already opted for “or something.”

    I wonder what the saw was for. Hopefully not more firewood like Garfield did.

    Trying to decide if there’s a figure in the cloud formation in panel one. Seems like there should be, but I can’t see it yet.

    Calvin is the only person that can play a board game and lose. He can’t even cheat well!

    I love how the mom is suggesting he play a board game…by himself. She’s not offering to play with him. In fact we only ever see her play with her son when she has an ulterior motive.

    I would think Calvin would like to go play in the rain. Think of all that splashing and mud puddles! Sailing boats in the gutter! Calvinball in the rain would be a hoot!

    I love how Calvin’s face looks on the lightning bolt in the second panel. Also, I picture the classic Disney/Hanna-Barbera “Castle Thunder” sound effects accompanying Calvin the Lightning Bolt.

    Mom should read him the story of Ben Franklin, then tell him to go fly a kite. Science Fair project! No, don’t try that at home, kids…only in comic strips…
