Walt(4), “A car with flowers in it that…[pause]…you fit in! And it drives automatically to the grocery store. If you come out of the grocery store without a flower it keeps beeping, “NO NO NO.” If you come out of the grocery store with a flower it doesn’t beep at you. All it wants you to buy are flowers for your car.”
Scene: Reading Richard Scarry’s Things that Go book before going to bed
Who: Mommy and 4 year old son, Todd
Background and Conversation:
First, we call this rather large bucket we have a “keg” bucket as well…that is what is bought for back in the day.
Now to the story. In the Richard Scarry book there was a truck carrying a huge piece of cheese.
Todd: ” That mouse is driving that cheese to his family because they like cheese.”
Mommy: ”When you get older, what would you drive to us?”
Todd: “I would go to the grocery store and get a huge amount of flowers. I would buy all the flowers they have. And all the flowers would be for you. The yellow ones that look like the sun.”
Mommy: ”That is so sweet honey.”
Todd: “But we would have to use the keg bucket to put them in when I got them to you. It is only thing big enough for all the flowers I would bring.”
