Totally happened with a 4 year old
The capability for children to immerse themselves in a fantasy world and act is astounding, this is absolutely believable to anyone who has ever had a child
Frankly we ought to get some toddlers in the writing room for some movies, we’ll get some really well thought out nonsense
Our daughter is just 2 years 3 months old and she is already singing made up melodies and lyrics. A couple of days back she made up a song about new bushes (whatever that is). Her friend (3,5 years) jammed with her dad on a keyboard and started singing very creepily "it sat for five minutes, sat for five minutes, sat for five minutes, and then it died".
What I love most about what kids say in these young years is that it is so freaking random. As a teen I loved dadaism and absurd theater and all this random stuff coming out of toddlers is absolutely golden. It sounds like a Merz poem at times. I can absolutely imagine a four year old telling a story about a cleaning lady with 5 kids and a husband.
The bush sr and jr are the old ones
This was the basis for the webcomic Axe Cop. It was started back in 2009 by the Nicolle brothers. Malachi (who was 5 at the time) thought up the story, while his brother Ethan (who was 28) drew them into comics.
Love it. Plot’s already more interesting than any recent movie I’ve watched.
