Alphabet books are lost on toddlers…
lovin’ the momocycle. We have a color book and on the “brown” page there is a boy in brown clothes, with brown hair, brown eyes… holding a gray stuffed koala. huh?
You wonder what they’re thinking… (I’m lovin’ the momocycle, too. I refuse to correct it, I love it so much.)
We have the same book. It is one of my son’s favourites and I thought I had every page memorized, but you have me stumped with A is for truck. What are they seeing on the A page that looks like a truck? Is it the airplane? I’m with the kids on B is for shoes. To Canadians, used to big honkin’ gumboots for spring and fall, and even bigger snowboots for winter, those piddly little things on the B page are SHOES, not boots!
It’s the ambulance. I agree about those ‘boots’. In fact, Emily has a pair very much like them that she wears these days… and we call them ‘shoes’. Because those things? Would not help at all in the snow or the mud, and that, my friends, defines “boots” in this country.
The one that made me laugh out loud was, “G is for duck – and strawberries”
Lots of things are lost on toddlers but I would argue that the pure joy of toddlers is lost on many adults. I’m just glad I’m not one of them.
Too cute. 😛
Which were, for you and me, a goose and grapes. Yes, you think they’d know what a bunch of grapes were. I feed them to them often enough, but someone in the crew called that bunch of (green!) grapes “strawberries” only last week!
So cute!!! Kids are inventive, I’ll give them that~ 😉
