Rock 'N Roll
So this evening, we are playing with the aforementioned Little People Pirate Ship, and something very funny happened.

First I should explain that the pirate ship has a little perch for a 'little people' parrot, and when you press down the perch it makes a number of sounds.

I.e. a ship's bell ringing, a cannon firing (did I mention this is the only Little People toy with a weapon?) and splashing harmlessly into the sea, sea sounds (with seagulls) a brief sea shanty that ends with a splashing noise (because the ship comes with a retractable 'plank' that uncooperative little pirates can be forced to walk), and my favorite, a very vigorous piece of "sea shanty" kind of music - more of a hornpipe really. It's quite fast and lively, and is kind of like Gilbert and Sullivan on speed.

So this evening, we are playing pirates, and I press the perch once - the perch which I should mention had not a parrot on it, but a horse. Yes, the horses from the Little People stable fit quite nicely on the perch, and we can't seem to locate the parrot, so the horse was filling in on his day off. So I press the horse and the bell sounds, and I say "Land Ho!" or something like that.

I then press it again, and the lunatic speeding sea shanty starts up, and Isaac crouches over and in a loud voice announces "That's ROCK 'N ROLL!" in a clear voice.

I laughed until I was sore.

This prompted two observations.

One. In no way can this sea shanty/hornpipe/very fast unnamed nautical music be considered "rock 'n roll".

Two. Even if it was, how would he know?

Needless to say, it was the cutest thing he's done in weeks, and I thought I should share.
