She had a few questions for us too, like how did we meet each other but thats another post!
What a fab post!! I love her!! Its so great asking our kids questions isnt it to see how their little minds work? I have teenagers and I have written a simlar post asking them questions -I am always amazed at their answers. I love that she loves Maths so much! As a teacher I am thrilled for her! Keep it up I say. #Dreamteam
She’s only just finished reception but she does love math! Hope I can keep up with her! x
I did a post like this a while a go with my son. It’s amazing how much you can learn from them! I did a second one a few months later and almost all the answers were different LOL #TriumphantTales
Haha! I’ll have to try that x
How adorable! Reminds me of the time I asked Big Sis around the same age what she wanted to be when she grew up, and the replied: ‘Work on a ‘pooter (computer), build houses and be a lady.’. Lofty ambitions indeed! 😉 #TriumphantTales
Love it, be a lady x
Love this! I think it’s great that she wants a unicorn. It’s important to have dreams, kid. #DreamTeam
very cute. I did something similar a few years ago and have been thinking its time for an update. Always funny to hear their perspectives on things #triumphanttales
This made us giggle. My mummy interviews me all the time especially for the blog. Love the answers! Popping over from #DreamTeam
how adorable is this? I love the answer about the universe… So innocent bless! Im interested to know what Ben would respond with if he could talk!
Thank you for sharing this with us at #TriumphantTales. i hope to see you back next week
This is so cute!! Some great answers there #HumpDayLinky
This is so cute! Love her comment about Peppa being weird 😂 #fortheloveofblog
I really want to start birthday interviews and you’ve inspired me to start collecting question. Some good ideas here #humpdaylinky
Good idea to do it on birthdays x
Aww! This is so cute….Kids can be so funny! I love the joke. My youngest still comes out with things like that. #fortheloveofBLOG
Super cute! I would definitely go for a pet unicorn too! And I love that space is 100m! Aaaw. #triumphanttales
#triumphanttales totally cute and love the unicorn answer to the standard dog / cat question. Five is a blessed age (wish we could bubble wrap the age)
So do I xx
Aww, how cute! I love that children always resort to butt humour when telling jokes, haha! #HumpDayLinky
I always thought it was just boys! x
Hahah love this, especially the Ferrari part lol. It’s crazy the things kids come up with! Thanks for sharing with #StayClassyMama!
She always says she’s team Ferrari x
Those kind of jokes are popular in our house, great to get an insight into their minds (and a bit scary too!) #dreamteam
Another joke of hers is ‘what did the chicken say to the tree? nothing, chicken’s can’t talk!’ x
Fantastic! I did this once with my nephew when he was 5, I filmed it on my dads old video recorder he is 12 years old now and reading this reminds me I really need to dig it out to show him all the things he said about the world. Its hilarious what they come out with xx #DreamTeam
Love it, wish I’d filmed her too. Will have to repeat it next year and start filming it then x
Aww this is so cute. I definitely think I need to interview my two now! PS: Gotta love a pet unicorn! 😉 Thanks for linking to #DreamTeam x
She really thinks they are real! Oh dear x
haha, excellent, of course everyone sticks at this age. It is great to read that she see’s boys and girls the same X #stayclassymama
Love this! Brothers ARE awesome at holding hands in cars and giving company 🙂 Love the way kids answer questions. Thanks for linking up to #fortheloveofblog
Very sweet post. The things they say. I did one like this after the holidays. Loads of fun. Thank you for making me smile. And, reminding me that trump means the same thing here as it does where you are! 🙂 #DreamTeam
When he holds my hand and keeps me company! Heart melted! So Cute! Will have to do these questions with Erin and see what she says! #HumpDayLinky
