Three Kids in the Yard

Three Kids in the Yard
A photo of an accident waiting to happen for the Vintage Photos Theme Park.

Three children pose in front of a flowering bush in this real photo postcard. The nonchalant way that the youngest kid is leaning on a gun seems like it could lead to an accident (see a cropped version for a better view of the kids).

It wasn't until I scanned the photo that I noticed the strange toy—a stuffed bunny with a human-like doll's face—that's on the grass in front of the children (see a close-up of the toy).

That's hilarious! Do you think it's supposed to imply that the young child is about to go rabbit hunting? (or perhaps that's just me adding a weird spin) :)

Looks like the mom in the middle - or perhaps a nanny, to me. The pose with the gun is sort of horrifying once you focus in on it.
I wonder if the strange little doll is "Bye Baby Bunting" - and perhaps, like Ellie says, the little boy is the "Daddy" in the nursery-rhyme/song?

Daddy's gone a-hunting.
Gone to get a rabbit skin,
To wrap his Baby-bunting in.
