How well do you know your child? I thought I know them well enough but I got surprised when I read some of the answers the kids wrote in their textbooks as part of our academic lessons.

Sample questions are (my guesses are the ones in italics):

What recreational activity do you enjoy most. My answer: watching dvd. Youngest daughter’s answer: playing the piano.

If I were food, what would I be? (ice cream) egg (ok no real surprise because son can have eggs at any given time of the day)

If I were an animal, what would I be? (dog) bettle

If I were a book, what title would I have? (Almanac) Bible

If I were a piece of furniture, what would I be? (bed) sofa

If I were a bird, where would I go? (to the beach) Norway (ok this really surprised me)

Would you ask your children these questions and see if you can guess their answers?
