Learning all the darn time
Some things we learned today-
Sophie learned that she is an animal. Just like dogs and cats. She is a human.
It’s a big leap, I tell you. We also talked a lot about cold-blooded and warm-blooded animals (our cold-blooded caterpillar died in the chilly night).
I learned that she can sit through an 80-minute film version of the World of Beatrix Potter ballet. 80 minutes of people dancing in costumes and NOT ONE WORD. Even I was bored stiff, but she . . . narrated every second for over an hour. Testament to the powers of imagination.
Speaking of which, Rosy can pretend! She pretends to serve “cococococo.” and she washes her new bike with pretend water, and sound effects.
She’s also linking two words together. “I swing.” “Mine bike.”
I learned the difference between a heron, an ibis, and a snowy egret today at the Wild Bird Center. Guess which one has yellow feet?
