Interview with a 4-year-old

February 13, 2010 //  by Uju//  6 Comments

I saw this idea on Barefoot Mahala’s blog and thought it was cute.

I decided to follow suit and ask my brand new four-year-old some questions.

Here are the results:

How old are you?  Four

How old are Mummy and Daddy?  One

What, both of us? Yes, you’re both little (laughs manically)

Who is in charge of the country?  Me!

Who is the Queen?  You!

What’s your favourite food?  Um, bananas (another crazed laugh)

What’s your favouite song?  Ben 10 loves you (a song he recently made up)

Where do carrots come from?  Vegetables

Where do vegetables come from? A vegetable bowl

What do you do at nursery?  You play nicely

What does Mummy do when you’re at nursery?  Come and get me

What does Daddy do when you’re at nursery?  He’s Buzz Lightyear

How does a car work?  Vroom vroom vroom with the steering wheel

Where do babies come from?  Outside, from the town with lots of buildings (giggles wildly)

What do you want to be when you grow up?  Ben 10!

What will you call your children?  Superman and Batman

What is something Mummy always says to you?  I love you

What makes you happy?  Playing with Pooh Bear

What makes you sad?  Somebody who’s being naughty and not nice to me

What’s the best thing in the whole world?  Toys and… PRESENTS!

    Why, this is a much better interview than Sarah Palin’s! Brilliant! Bravo! And the little prince didn’t even need to write a cheat sheet on his hand ;-)

    Love his future kids’ name!!! Who is this guy? He rocks!!! LOLOL

    LOL It was a probing interview, thanks to Barefoot Mahala for the idea. Ezra makes a fascinating subject at any time. And I’ll tell him he’s better than Sarah Palin – he digs any kind of competition in which he comes out on top!
