One of the wonderful things about kindergarten is that you get to teach them things that you've known for your whole life, and you know they will too. I got to teach them the nursery rhyme, Baa Baa Black Sheep. Many of them already knew it, but of course the words were mashed together for many of them, and I had to clarify what a "dame" is and other little details like that. The most adorable misconception though, was one little red-head who sang,
Baa baa black sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full.
One for the master,
One for the dame,
One for the little boy who lives down the drain.
Baa baa black sheep, have you any wool?
Yes sir, yes sir, three bags full.
:)
And speaking of sheep, as frequently happens, one little kindie came up to me with a joke:
"What does a talking sheep do?"
"What?"
(with sports-announcer enthusiasm:) "Play tennis!"
?!
Lovely.

That's hilarious. I love your stories Rose. I can't wait until these stories are about your own kindie.
