The cousins of my children are all boys. They seemed born with an instant knowledge of trucks and motorcycles and their sounds. My boys are a little behind.
Jackson was playing with a motorcycle and I said, "jump it Jackson". He began to jump it, "jump, jump, jump" as he did. Shane freaked out. "No, no, no! This is the sound when a motorcyle jumps, "Ni..ni.niiiiiiiii"
Shane has now been shopping for trucks, trailers and motorcycles to play with the boys.
That's hilarious! I've always wondered how boys were born knowing to like planes and trucks and somehow know what sounds to make as they play with them. And how do little boys, who are barely toddlers, know that they're supposed to like playing with balls? You don't see little girls being drawn to anything spherical saying "ba!"
