Persistence pays off
“Would you like some goulash?” Anna tips the ‘pot’ (aka cowboy hat) which she has been stirring with a ‘spoon’ (aka rhythm stick) so that Timmy can see the ‘goulash’ (aka wooden puzzle pieces). Timmy loks up from the puzzle he’s completing, peeks into the pot and makes his decision.
“No, thank you.”
“Would you like some goulash?”
“No, thank you.”
“Would you like some goulash?”
“No, thank you.”
She’s hearing him just fine. Nor is there any misunderstanding. He’s answering cheerfully and very clearly, each and every time. But he is also giving the Wrong Answer. Anna tries yet again.
“Would you like some goulash?”
“No, thank you.”
Repetition is not working.
“Okay, I’ll make you some goulash!!!”
Because, come hell or high water, this boy is going to get some GOULASH, dammit! Timmy’s head come up from his puzzle yet again.
“Oh, you’re going to make me some goulash?”
“Yes!”
“O-KAY!!”
Toddlers are just plain weird.
