Sh*t My Kids Say #2 – Disney On Ice
Kids are funny people. They really have no concept of right or wrong, they don’t know not to call people fat or stupid and they have no idea how hilarious their imaginary stories are to adults.
That has led me to the decision to create a new section here at Canadian Dad called “Sh*t My Kids Say”. I know, I know, it’s a semi dirty word but this is my blog and I’ll swear if I want to, LOL.

We had a great time at Disney On Ice last night, other than the length of time it spanned. I mean seriously, 2 hours and a bit of dancing princesses? I’m as excited about Disney as anyone but after a while they all start to look the same.
On the drive home, we asked my son what he thought of the show.
D: “Hey buddy, what was your favorite part of the show?”
L: “Ummmm, the part where I got my toy”
D: “Really? The part before we even sat down at our seats, when we bought you the Incredibles figurines?”
L: “Yeah, I really, really love them”
D: “What about the show? Anything from the actual show that you liked?”
L: “Donald Duck”
D: “Donald Duck was in the 2 hour show for 3 minutes and said no words, that’s all you liked?”
L: “I liked….(clearly humouring me at this point) the claw”
D: “What claw???”
L: “The claw from Peter Pan”
D: “?????” “You mean Captain Hook?”
L: “No Daddy, the claw. And when the crocodile ate the guy”
D: :Well, I’m glad you liked it???”
L: “But I really, really love my Incredible guys”
D: “Excellent!”
The main thing I learned from this conversation is that my son could care less about what happened that night because he lost interest upon receiving his late Valentine’s Day gift of Incredibles figurines.
I know he had fun because I was watching him throughout the show, I think he just hasn’t figured out the “favorite part” thing yet. Maybe he just enjoyed it so much that everything was his favorite part? Either way, the toys ruled the day and I’m happy to report that as of 12 hours later, he still really, really loves them, haha.
Cheers!
