Like: Naomi is scared of the wave pools. She does NOT like the waves coming in. At all.
Like: Hannah listens carefully enough to the descriptions of the trainers feeding the sea otters to tell me a story she made up on the way home all about a baby sea otter rescued from the oil spill.
And then you can learn new things at home. At dinner we were discussing the trip to the aquarium, telling Michael all about it. I started subbing "fur seal" and "otter" into a song about belugas that the girls like. Hannah picked up on it and substituted into a song of her own. Then Naomi decided to get involved and came up with "Fur seals are watching over me tonight." The actual song is "Angels are watching over me tonight." I thought that was pretty clever for a girl her age to get the joke and expand on it!
