Show and tell, indeed

Scene: Yesterday, when I picked Amelia up from day care. They were playing in the common area.

A: DADDY! DADDY! GUESS WHAT WE EARNED TODAY!
E: Do you mean what you learned today?
A: NO! NO! WHAT WE EARNED!
E: What’s that?
A: WE HAD GOOD LISTENING EARS, SO WE EARNED THE SUGAR THING THAT AIDAN BROUGHT FOR SHOW & TELL!

[I found out later it was Pixie Sticks.]

E: Did you have this… recently?
A: UH-HUH, I DID DADDY! I DID!

And during this brief conversation, I also had the following conversation with one of Amelia’s classmates, three times:

Jack: AMELIA JOHNSON’S DADDY! AMELIA JOHNSON’S DADDY! WATCH ME JUMP!
[jumps]
[repeat]
[repeat]

We are wondering how Pixie Sticks constitute “show & tell”…

    Organic chocolate from Aunt Mel’s former company sounds even better for show n tell. And photos of cocoa farms. Does Amelia know chocolate grows on trees?
