Toddler Logic

Overheard at a marvelous performance of Circus last night:

Onstage there is a middle aged man wearing a lion suit. He is barefoot and playing the accordian.

3 year old girl: "Why does the lion not have any shoes on?"
Father: "Because lions don't wear shoes."
3 year old girl: "Lions don't play music either!"

The show was really fun. It was 1.5 hours long, and only one word was spoken, once: "No." The physical acrobatics and clowning routines were pretty sweet.

Today I'm going to see the Lambert Puppet Theatre in Monkstown as part of my children's theatre independent study. This should be amusing.
