GIRAFFE USES COLOUR TO STAND OUT
Boy: It’s a giraffe with a really colourful pattern on its neck.
Age 5
It’s a car and it’s all camouflaged!
Zebras
D: They’re all zebras – that’s a pattern.
Me: Why are they all on top of one another?
D: They’re not! They’re just lined up. Do you know why that one’s a bit further back? ‘Cause he’s a bit slow.
Pet dog – Nov 2012
D: It’s my pet dog – not a Pillow Pet – just a pet. Amy the adult at Vikki’s drew the face and I drew the rest of it. They’re patches on it’s body.
Me: Is it lying down or running?
D: It’s standing up – with its legs.
Me: You’d better not go onto their piece of land then.
D: No, or they will ATTACK! And gobble me all up.
D: On my way back from school I saw a wild cat – when I looked at it, it looked at me and Sophie and it went “hhheh!” [makes an angry cat face]
Me: And what did you do?
D: I looked at it again and it went “hhheh!” again.
Me: What do you think it was trying to say?
D: It was trying to say “I want to pull your hair out!”
