The other night I was giving my daughter a bath.She has foam letters that she plays with in the tub, so when she asked me to hand her one I decided to turn bath time into lesson time. Here's how the conversation went:
Ophelia: I need the purple one.
Me: This one?
Ophelia: Yeah.
Me: You know what this is?
Ophelia: Yeah.
Me: What is it?
Ophelia: I don't know.
Me: It's a letter.
Ophelia: Yeah.
Me: Do you know which letter it is?
Ophelia: Yeah.
Me: Which letter is it?
Ophelia: The purple one.
Could not have put it better myself....
ReplyDeleteI laughed so hard and so long it kinda feels foolish to comment now the laughter has finally ceased...
ReplyDeleteWait. No wait. Nope can't top that. Still laughing. Heck I might smile all day. Thanks for such a simple lesson, taught by a 2 year old. Maybe she could be a guest speaker at a film school.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great story. She's a natural story teller. I'll be keeping an eye on her career in filmmaking.
