The priceless realisation on the face of a 23 month old that her dress had a lot in common with one of the animals that she encountered for the first time, an animal that so far was called "Pferd" (horse) when she came across it in books. No longer. It is now firmly a zebra.
She couldn't get enough of them.
The excitement knew no ends when she met the bamblibears (aka panda bears). They're black and white too.
At night, she slept with the mask.
Oh to be a almost two again and discover the world for the very first time.

These moments of wonder, you can't beat them! I still marvel at all the books my kids have never read, all the films they've never seen yet, etc etc. I had fun in a bookshop recently, picking up a few of the classics for my daughter now that she's 7...
I love the fact that she is so suitable dressed for her visit!
She brought a smile to the face of quite a few, funny to hear even some people in slovenic languages commenting on the little zebra! It wasn't planned, it just happened, and it made the trip extra special for her.
I quite enjoy discovering some books and films with the kids, kept holding off watching/reading them until we can do so together.
