First Story

Isabelle comes running into the kitchen:

- Mama, mama, er kwam een kleine krokodil aan, die ging mijn koekie opeten!!!!
Mama, mama, a little crocodile came by and wanted to eat my cookie!!!!

- Non!!! C'est pas possible!!!
No, that's not possible!!!

- Jaaaa! Dat mag niet, he!
Yes he did! And that's not allowed, he!

- Non, ça c'est pas bien. Et qu'est-ce que tu lui as dit, au crocodile?
No, that's not good. And what did you say to the crocodile?

- Kleine krokodil, dat mag niet, dat ik zeggen!
Little crocodile, that's not allowed, that I said.

Then she went on to hunt for the crocodile under the sink, to make sure he'd heard her. It's the first time she's invented a story. Of course once that starts...

... Isabelle at the dinner table, pointing at the huge forest poster behind her:

- Shht Mama! Luister, een konijn in het bos zingen!
Shht Mama! Listen, a rabbit in the forest singing!
