- Another example of "Kids unclear on the concept..."
-
- The other day my husband, who had a cold, explained to Caitie
- (2.5 YO) that he had a frog in his throat:
- "Sometimes, when you have a cold, your voice sounds like a frog.
- Ribid, Ribid. Then we say you have a frog in your throat."
-
- That evening, while playing with a toy cat, Caitie demonstrated
- that she had absorbed this lesson and generalized it:
- "Meow, Meow. I have a Kitty Cat in my throat!"
