Kid Culture

Beanie is choreographing a dance to her latest piano composition. First she shows Pook what movement goes with each “chord”, then she plays the chord (actually a sequence of notes) and says its name: “this is a waterfall chord…this is a flying chord…” and Pook does the movements. It's actually very interesting and a little scary; I am certain that she is much, much smarter than I am.

Under the category of less cultured…here’s what I overheard while making breakfast. The (semi-nakey)kids were playing on the computer and with play-doh (probably not such a good combination, in retrospect!).

Bitty: “I poot play-doh! Look! I put play-doh in my bottom!” (giggles from all kids)
I chastised him and told him I would take the play-doh away if he did it again.
Bitty: “I’m sorry for put the play-doh in my butt. Pookie did it too!”
