Show and Tell

Earlier this week, Reese was supposed to take something "square" to school.  We decided on dice but couldn't put our hands on her Phase 1 game that morning (and I was in a hurry).  I suggested she take a book, but she nixed me on that one.  I even tried a book that talks about shapes 'cause there are all kinds of squares in there, but she put the kaboodle on that one too.

Finally, it was decided that T would help her find something to take.  I left for work and promptly forgot all about the "something square" until I picked her up from school and the following conversation ensued:

Reese:  "Hey, guess what I took to school today that was square."
Me:  "Ummm..."
Reese:  "I took a tile"
Me:  "What?"
Reese:  "Daddy gave me a tile to take.  And, guess what else he gave me."
Me:  "I honestly have no idea."
Reese:  "A piece of that scratchy stuff you use in the garage."
Me:  "You mean sandpaper?"
Reese:  "Yep, sandpaper.  They come in square shapes."

Something tells me that choosing Show and Tell items is not T's forte...at least he didn't send her with the tool (which is arguably a square, and could "technically" qualify, but might be a little confusing if you're like 4 or something!)
