How a 3 year old makes soup
Our friend Mama (who's married to Papa) was in town for a visit with their son, 3B.
Mama and Em went out onto the porch with DMTU, leaving MLTU and 3B inside to play. The mothers thought that their 3 year old angels were "playing music", but it turns out they were "cooking":
I am
not sure what is more impressive: The fact that these two kids were
able to open a cabinet, grab an appropriate sized tupperware, have the
forethought to put on bibs, open the refrigerator, grab food, open containers and mix them together...
OR
The fact that they combined three things (yogurt, milk and jam) that actually might taste good together and actually had the consistency of "soup" (which is what they called it). Note that Em stopped them right before they were able to add olives.
We tried to get them to sample their concoction, but they passed.
The lesson: leave two kids alone in a not-so-child-proofed home and you never know what will happen.
