I managed to get the kids to watch "The Yule Log - Christmas by the Fireplace" for 11 minutes before they figured out nothing was happening.
"What's gonna happen, Daddy?"
"I dunno - watch."
...
"When's it gonna start?"
"It already has."
...
...
...
"I bet it's gonna explode."
"Yeahhh...watch and tell me when it does."
...
...
"Probably when the music stops it's gonna explode."
"Probably."
...
...
"It sounds like the fire is slapping itself."
*giggles*
...
...
...
"Nothing's happening."
"Just wait - here comes the really good part."
...
...
...
Kids *cracking up* "It's not a MOVIE! It's just music and a fireplace."
Me:TIME!?
Mama:11 minutes.
Me:Sweet.
FANTASTIC!
