It reminds me of when we were preparing Sofie to take this crazy kid IQ test to see if she could get into her crazy kid school. We also tried to prepare her for those word games. This was about 2 years ago now...Anyway, when we did the testing, Ken and I sat in the psychologist's waiting room, while Sofie went into the office by herself, but we could still hear everything. At one point, they played a game where the doc said: "I'll give you clues and you figure out what I'm thinking of." The doc goes: "it's red and grows on trees and it's crunchy when you bite into it." Sofie goes: "apple." The doc then gets to: "its pink and you chew it and you can blow bubbles with it." Sofie is silent. Doc goes:" you know, you chew it, it's pink.." Sofie says: "oh my goodness gum is so bad for your teeth." Spoken like a child who has never tried bubble gum! That is so great.
