My 4 year old son Wyatt is in preschool.
A while back they were read a story about "The Rainbow Fish" who had very shiny scales. All the other fish loved his shiny scales but he wouldn't share them. The other fish kept asking him to share his shiny scales because they had none. He hid from them because he wanted to keep them. They stopped playing with him until he finally decided to share them and then they were all friends.
Now I found the story amusing under the current political context. The other fish shunned the rainbow fish because he wouldn't "share the wealth?" Well that aside... ...the teacher challenged the kids to paint their own rainbow fish and tell a story about it. Most stories where all "happy fish swims, yadda yadda."
My son, well... ...he showed me that he's 100% certified "sticks and snails and puppy-dog tails". HIS rainbow fish story:
My Wyatt fish lives in a
different sea with this kind of octopus and sparkley scales. They Wyatt fish likes to share his scales. The Wyatt fish likes to
eat little fish and he has to stay away from the mean sharks because they like to eat my fish. And he has shooters so he can get the mean sharks and 100,000 shooter guys. And then they say, "ARGHHH! Where are they going?!" And the shell is going to protect the mean sharks from the shooters.
The End.
Love 'dat boy.
