Boy: Let’s play trampoline battles where we have to try and make each other fall over without pushing! Round 1 is: You’re only allowed to bounce around in a circle. On Round 2 you can do bouncing and knee drops. On Round 3 you have to show ALL your best moves – seat drops, pike jumps, tuck jumps – anything you want! Ready?

Son: Guess what? I’m in the finals for the photo competition!
Mum: Wow! That’s great!
Son: Yeah – we sat down in our assembly circle this morning and Mrs W said, “Now, I want to talk to you about who’s in the final.” And then she said I am one and two other children are too.
Mum: Just three of you then?
Son: Yeah – so can I go – can I go the the final, mum?
Mum: I don’t know if you need to go to something. It might just mean that your bluebell picture is in the final – I haven’t heard anything about you having to go anywhere.

Son: We had our pictures taken today and we had a competition! But I didn’t win.
Mum: Oh? What was the competition?
Son: Whoever finds the best flower gets to show it in assembly. I didn’t get the best flower though.
Mum: What flower did you get?
Son: A bluebell.
Mum: I like a bluebell. What were the winning flowers?
Son: A dandelion, which was still yellow, a daisy and a holly leaf which had a berry on it because it was from a cold place. Mine was number 4, so I don’t get to show it. The teacher took my picture with me pretending to ring it like a bell, but it’s only the winners get their pictures printed – only 1, 2 and 3, so my picture didn’t get printed.
Mum: Well I would have chosen a bluebell! I think bluebells are lovely.
Son: Yes, and they REALLY DO ring like a bell – I looked inside and it had a hard ball, like a raisin inside.
Mum: A stamen?
Son: Yes – a stamen – and when I shook it, I listened REALLY hard and I heard a little tinkle!

Mum: What are you doing? Being a chicken?
Son: No, I’m trying to do that thing like in Tom and Jerry when Tom locks Jerry out and he come in because he finds a hole that’s just the right size. Sometimes when Tom’s very confused, and he sees Jerry there’s this thing that he normally does: His eyes stick out one time; and then they stick out some more to there [uses hands to demonstrate] and then to there; and then to there; and then to there! It’s REALLY funny.
And then he chases Jerry around the room and then Jerry does bad things to him – like one thing he did was stick a pin right through his head – it went right through his brain, but he was still alive!
And once, there were some baby mouses, with nappies on and the mouses get some milk and they suck it into their mouths and pretend they swallow it but they actually don’t – they just swallow air and then they spit the milk out at Tom!
Mum: Do you think it’s fair that they do all that to Tom?
Son: Yes I do, because Tom tries to catch them and it’s Tom and Jerry so it’s meant to be like that.
