In the car this morning Karsten was talking the ENTIRE way to school about stop signs and stop lights. We talked about how green means go, red means stop and yellow means get ready to stop. She was VERY inquisitive and taking it all in. We discussed traffic patters and how traffic going one way has to wait its turn at the red light so the other traffic can go on the green light. Then they take turns and go the other way. I don't remember a 2 year old being curious about something complex like traffic patterns!
Then the conversation moved to the green and blue on top of the stop sign. I had no idea what she was talking about...there is nothing on top of a stop sign, right? But for a very inquisitive and observant child, there are street signs on top of the stop sign. Most are green, but at the end of our street we have one blue and one green street sign. Karsten you are exactly right and Mom totally got schooled this morning!
