But, being five, there are a few things that Dave doesn't quite have the hang of yet - like guess the animal/person. You know the game - it's basically the same as 20 questions - only we usually play with an infinite number of questions, especially if we are playing with kids. Dave was pretty good at asking questions. I mean, he doesn't really know the difference between a mammal and a reptile, but he can guess lots of animals.
Sadly, though, Dave was not really a master of answering questions. One round went like this:
(Also, it was in this game that Eric made Dave cry, but that's a story unto itself).
Dave: Okay, I'm ready.And that's how Guess the Animal/Person goes when you play with a five-and-a-half-year old.
Questioner: Is it a boy?
Dave: Yeah.
Questioner: Is he from a movie?
Dave: Yeah, he's from Star Wars.
Questioner: Is he a Jedi?
Dave: Yeah, it's Luke Skywalker.
(Also, it was in this game that Eric made Dave cry, but that's a story unto itself).
What a cutie! He'll get the hang of the game and then drive every one nuts trying to get them to play with him. :)
ReplyDeleteWait until he starts with the knock-knock jokes. My 7 year old has been doing them for nearly 2 years and still doesn't get it.
ReplyDeleteDave is at such a delightful age. Eric didn't make him cry just once...a story you must tell...he also cried whey you & Eric left.
