At group time we were reading a story about African animals. I turn to the next page that has a couple of animals, including the giraffe. When I got finished talking one little boy shouts out that the giraffe is like a dinosaur. He continues "All the dinosaurs in Alberta died in the 90's....Hey my parents met in the 90s!!!!".

So three of the boys were attempting to whistle. One of them got thirsty and got some water and guzzled it down. Then went on with his whistling. Then all of a sudden a light bulb went on over his head!!!! After I drank water...I could whistle better. The next thing you know they all are lining up at the sink with their cups....Filling them right up....and drinking them as fast as they could!!!. Then did a few good whistles and then they were back to the sink for more water. I saw what was happening and strongly encouraged them that the amount of water they were putting in their mouth would soon send them all running to the bathroom! I assured them that either licking their lips or putting just a tiny little bit of water in their cup would do the trick just fine.

       As I go to collect my things inside before leaving work for the day one little 2 year old follows me inside. I soon learn that he is looking for a drink of water. I inform him that his water bottle is sitting on the table outside and to get a drink from there. But he still proceeds to take off his shoes. I urge him to get them back on and go get his water bottle outside. By this point he was a little frustrated with me...He all of a sudden blurts out "I am going to pick you up...and throw you in the river!!!". I busted into laughter...and so did he (cause I was)!!! I told him..."good luck with that". Considering that fact that he is two...and that there are no rivers in sight. What a kid. And just so you know...he did get those shoes back on while we laughed...then ran outside and bee lined to his water bottle.
