It's always special when Grandma comes to visit. She listens to the most mundane stories with rapt attention, she brings presents, and she gives the best hugs!
The three children in this illustration by Florence Liley Young are most interested in the "present" part just now. In the story "Three Guesses", in "A Story Garden for Little Children" (1913), each child has...yep, three chances to guess what's inside the package.
Not to be a spoiler, but I bet they're going to end up with the surprise in any case!
