Rhyming
My 5 year old son has taken to a little rhyming game. All day long, no matter what I say, he rhymes. For example - I"ll say, "We're having chicken for dinner." He'll say, "We're maving licken for binner?" As he runs through the house, he overhears me saying to his sister, "Please clean up your toys." He'll say, "Brean up your loys." I think you get the picture. Most everyone thinks it is cute and funny. Most everyone does not spend almost 24/7 with him.
The other day he decided to do some conjugating rhyming. For example, he rhymes the ending "or". So, you hear him say, bor, cor, dor, for, gor, lor, etc.... Inevitably, he decides to rhyme the ending "uck." It starts out fine with buck, cuck, and duck, but I think you see where this headed quickly. He decided to rhyme this particular ending over and over again.
Sigh.
