Girlancy vests - Real Mum story on MoM

13 Comments

On our walk to kindergarten my son & I were discussing his item he was showing as it was show & tell morning. I mentioned it s called a life jacket, but the proper name is a buoyancy vest. He replied ever so sweetly with ‘So girls have girlancy vests’, have to admit it made me giggle & I couldn’t resist picking him up, squeezing him tight & planting a big sloppy kiss on his cheek. Me actually said the same thing during show & tell, this made all the adults laugh so became a discussion about buoyancy vests which lasted a good 20 minutes as it made sense to the children….

It reminded me of my sons first show and tell……he forgot his item so as he stood there in front o the class you could almost see his mind working before he pulled down his shorts to the knee and proudly showed the class his new Ninja Turtle underpants!

An interesting item for show and tell. Is there a special reason as to why your child chose a buoyancy vest? Kids amaze me with the items they choose for show and tell. I remember one child bringing in a box which contained a real snake! It was a small python! My heart skipped a few beats!

Kids’ mistakes can be very logical, in a way.
