5-yr-old: "What was that song I heard in TV?"
Mom: "Jack and Jill?"
"Yes, sing it for me."
"Have you forgotten? You must have learned it in school last year or the year before that."
"Sing it for me."
"Jack and Jill went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water.
Jack fell down and broke his crown
And Jill came tumbling after."
"What does that mean, 'broke his crown'?"
"He must have hit his head or something."
"And Jill?"
"She fell down too."
"They must have been real small kids, right?"
"Why so?"
"They should have known they are not supposed to go up the hill to get water."

Ah, this is so delightful! I never thought about Jack and Jill in such a critical manner. Maybe I should have!
