Thanks! That agrees with what I was thinking as well.

He doesn't seem to get excited about the shredded paper at all, so I don't think that is an issue (he's had that jungle gym since he was a 3 month old baby). And we don't let him have any tents etc.

It's funny the things he'll get excited about. For a while my wife was knitting a purple blanket, and he was never more excited about something than seeing those knitting needles move around in the wool! He would try everything he could to get to it.
