My son.....the princess

Tripp is in a class each week called Just Imagine and he loves it! It's theater for kids and each week, the kids are the creators, directors and stars as they travel the world using their vivid imaginations. The teachers bring tons of costumes, hilarious props and imaginative stories and through fascinating stories and fun legends , they travel in the kid-created travel machine to places like England (to find the lost crown), the Congo (to swing through the trees and to help a baby spotted neck otter build his home) and many more exciting places.

This week, they 'attended' pirate school to help a tired, cranky pirate school instructor find his parrot. PERFECT for my little guy who HAD to be a pirate for Halloween and constantly sings the 'Pirates who don't do anything' song. Right? Wrong! I asked Tripp what he dressed up like today and he said 'A princess and a switch witch'. This is a typical answer from him and so I asked his teacher. The response? 'Everyone in class dressed up as pirates but Tripp dressed in a princess costume and wore a witch hat'. Way to represent, little guy.
