It's All About Love

Ian and Daniel were working out a bit of dramatic play around the rare theme of The Wiggles that involved, as a prop, a red stuffed "Big Red Car" toy that Ian was holding in his hand.

At the outset of the drama, the Big Red Car was saying he felt like he shouldn't join the Wiggles because he's all wrinkled, or something along those lines. Knowing KinderDrama as well as I do, from my own childhood in the 70's, I knew enough to speak up and say something like "But Big Red Car, nobody cares about how you look. We like you for who you are."

Daniel showed at least as much enlightenment as I did at that moment, piping up, "Yeah, all of Jeff, Murray, and Greg love you, Big Red Car!"

We should get paid to write this stuff...
