[blParent] Attaching a bell to a crawling baby

[Leslie Hamric]

That student was probably me. I took a key ring, put the bell  on the key ring, and pinned it to the back of ny son's shirt. When he started wearing shoes, I got those squeaker shoes and had squeakers in the bottom so every time he took a step, they would squeak. But unfortunately, he figured out how to walk on his toes so they wouldn't squeak so I had to quit using those. shirt.
