Rumpus

Conversation with Noah last Friday:

Me: So did you have a good day at school today?
Noah: Yes, it was bring a game day
[Last day of term before Spring break so the children had an easy day]
Me: I see you took Robodoc, did you have fun playing it?
Noah: Well, not really the other children didn't listen very well as there was such a rumpus going on!

Rumpus? What 5 year old uses the word rumpus?

I decided to see if he really knew what the word meant. Hey, in our family it's ok to use your extended vocabulary but you've got to know what it means.

Rumpus definition according to Noah: Yeah, well it's like when you have a party and there's lots of noise and stuff and things going on. That's a rumpus!

Probably not the dictionary definition but close enough for me.

He makes me smile...
