Nursery Rhyming

Brianna has recently become aware of the good old classic nursery rhymes and apparently she's a big fan, especially of "Hickory Dickory Dock." She can go on chanting that one for half an hour at a time. Except when she recites it it goes something like this:

"Dickory Dickory Dock
A mouse ran up a clock
The mouse ran down
Dickory Dickory Dock"

And then she just repeats that in a never-ending loop since the last line can also conveniently double as the first line of the next go round.

Her other favorite is "Hey Diddle Diddle." I think she likes this one because she owns a "rock guitar." It's a plastic violin that also converts to a guitar and plays music. Today she pulled it out and was going, "The cat and the fiddle!" And then she actually held part of it up to her chin, which is how you would play a violin in real life. I was really surprised since I have no idea where she picked that up...maybe she saw it on TV?
