As part of my bedtime routine with the girls I tell them a short story about either their life or mine. They usually pick a topic, like "tell a story about a dress" or "something about curtains", and I quickly rack my brain for something that relates.
Tonight during bedtime Sophie asked me to tell about the earliest movie I could remember seeing. I did talk about viewing The Care Bears Movie in the theater, but I happened to mention that my Grandma would tape movies for us to watch and Sophie had no idea what I meant. So then I spent time explaining what video cassettes and VCRs are. Also, she felt great pity for me that commercials could not be skipped during my childhood.
