"I mean, we might say our child's stick drawing is brilliant, but where does that leave poor old Van Gogh? On a par?"

I often say to a child about his/her art: "I like that! It's fun!" It's all true. I like that he/she did it, and wants to show it. "It's fun" is ambiguous: Is the picture fun to look at? Is drawing fun?
