TRICKY VOCABULARY

I think we can all agree that TV is not a competent baby sitter and kids need lots of exercise and fresh air. But...I'm a true believer that some shows are just FUN to watch with your family. Take, for example, AMERICAN IDOL. The first year it came out, our whole family (all 6 of us) would gather together and watch---EVEN OUR TEENAGERS! It was fun to vote for our favorites and make side "bets" with each other about who would win.

My friend Heather and her second-grade daughter Jaden were watching THE GRAMMYS last night. Mom was explaining to Jaden that some of the girls have extensions in their hair. Later, they were talking about someone on THE GRAMMYS, and Jaden said, "I think she has extension cords in her hair."

Vocabulary can be tricky!
