Dash has also taken to playing Magic School Bus whenever he can. This morning, I asked him to go for a walk with me after breakfast and he would only do it if he could bring his bag like the character D.A. I haven't actually watched to see if D.A. has a princess purse, but in Dash's version, she sure does.
Dash also suggested that we name our new baby Phoebe Arnold Carlos Cohen (with Phoebe, Arnold, and Carlos all being students on the Magic School Bus).
And Dash and his pal M can "play" magic school bus for a surprisingly long period of time considering that the only actual play is deciding who is who. "You be Arnold and I will be Keisha!" "OK, now I am Carlos!" Tragically for Dash, on our last playdate to M's house, M came to the door when we arrived and immediately said he didn't want to play Magic School Bus.
