  Is it really a secret? Calvin and Hobbes contains a ton of relevant commentary. Just the amount of time Calvin spends outside tells you something. He probably would leave it as observation rather than presciption, like most humorists.

    Kids spending a lot of time outside was quite normal in the 1980s. There wasn't much to do inside. Even more so when Watterson was himself a child, which is probably what inspired a lot of his cartoons.
