Conversation

A really close friend of mine is a school teacher at a local private school, she teaches the 4 year olds. In her class she has a young boy from Vietnam who is just learning English. This confabulation ensued yesterday during arts and crafts.

The kids were playing with Styrofoam shapes:

Kid 1: Look, stickura, stickura!
Kid 2: Ms. D... what is he saying?
Teacher: he's saying sticker.
Kid 1: Wead, Wead, herre.
Kid 2: What does it say?
Teacher: It says, "Made In China"
Kid 2: WOW, JUST LIKE YOU HUH? YOU WERE MADE IN CHINA TOO HUH MS. D...?
