You could go with it, imagining ever more fantastical things ("I'm going to have a thousand matching shirts!" "Let's take pictures of a lion!") and acknowledging how much fun that would be, but at the end noting that it's just pretend. <br /><br />I've also read that children can tell what's pretend (e.g. mice are not named Lily and they don't go to school) and what's not).<br /><br />And maybe this boy has parents who fib to him: "if you'll just be quiet we'll go camping" when they have no intention of doing so. I've seen people do that and it's sad.Cyndiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01160008003292716249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1181263349418369341.post-4378579525717471832010-07-13T08:33:22.382-06:002010-07-13T08:33:22.382-06:00When I did childcare from home we were told not to...When I did childcare from home we were told not to give color sheets only blank pages to encourage creativity.
