Earth Day Adventures

Yesterday, The Boy's school hosted an animal expert with animals in tow for Earth Day. When I picked him up yesterday, I was sure to ask him about the presentation.

Momma: What did you do for Earth Day today?
The Boy: I don't remember.
Momma: Did you have someone bring animals to school?
The Boy: Oh, yes, that is what happened. How did you know that?
Momma: There was a sign on the door that told me.
The Boy: Signs don't talk.
Momma (ignoring the smart remark): What animals did you get to see?
The Boy: We saw a lot of animals. We saw an alligator, but it was a baby so it couldn't eat us.
Momma: That is good.
The Boy: We also saw tree frogs. They are poisonous and almost stinct.
Momma: They are almost what?
The Boy: Stinct...it means they are dying and won't be around anymore.
Momma: Oh, you mean EXTINCT.
The Boy: Yes, stinct. Did you know that you could die from an alligator and a tree frog. The alligator eats you and if you lick a tree frog, you could die.
Momma: Really?
The Boy: Yes, and even if the alligator spits you back out, you will still be dead.

What are they teaching The Boy at school? This is generally how our afternoon conversations run. I love having a preschooler.
