Tadpole: Wolf!
Me: No, bear.
Tadpole: No, wolf.
Me: No, bear.
Tadpole (suspicious look): Bear.
Me: Very good! And what sound does the bear make?
Tadpole: ahooooooooo!
Me: Bugger
Froglet: Why does he want to kill the daddy bear?
Me: He's not the daddy bear. He's the man, remember? The one who got transformed? The cub is lost.
Froglet: But where's his mommy?
Me: She's dead, remember?
Froglet: BUT I DON'T WANT THE MOMMY TO BE DEAHEAHEAHEAD! *sobs*
Froglet: What are they doing?
Me: They're playing I spy.
Tadpole: Me too! Me too! I spy, with my a-eye, something that's...
Froglet: GET OUT OF THE WAY I CAN'T SEE THE MOVIE
Tadpole: But I want to play I spyyyyyyyyyyy.
Froglet: MOOOOOOOOM!

Tadpole: sulks in silence.
Tadpole: Want orange juice.
Me: Can you wait just a minute?
Tadpole: Pleasepleaseplease
Me: OK *gets up to get orange juice*
Froglet: MOMMY DON'T GO I'M SCAAAAAAAAARED! *weeps*
Froglet: Why is the hunter such a bad man?
Me: Well, he thinks he's avenging his brother.
Froglet: Where's his brother?
Me: Well, the brother's the bear, he's been transformed, remember?
Froglet: Why does he want to kill his brother? WHAT A BAD, BAD MAN!
Froglet: But I thought the mommy was dead.
Me: yeah, that's her spirit.
Froglet: What's a spirit?
Me: ...
Froglet: Where are they going? How come they can fly? Why aren't the other ones going too?
Me: ...
(any idea as to how to get this one across with grace is very welcome, BTW. I'm at a loss, myself.)
Bugger.
Watching a Walt Disney Movie with your kids? Priceless. Just make sure you bring a good book and ear plugs. Oh, and sit in another room altogether.
