Hot Lava, Potty Training, and Monsters Inc?

HOT LAVA. What makes this fun? I don't remember as a kid playing like I had to avoid the hot lava. Yell "Hot lava" every time someone went near the designated hot lava area or for that matter....even know what hot lava was (as a 3 year old?) But it is the latest craze with this bunch and I get to hear "Hot Lava!" a lot.

Both of the boys I watch ( 2 and 3) are being potty trained. I loathed potty training as a parent. I am finding as a sitter it's not as bad I remember, of course I'm only with them 20 hours out of their whole week! Still a lot of my time is taken up with "I got to Potty" along with "Hot Lava!"

Monsters Inc. yet another phase the group is going through. They don't want to watch a movie, they want to watch Monsters Inc. They want to hide and have a bad monster try to get them. They want to experience the monster in the closet for real!? So in addition to "I got to potty"and "Hot Lava" I get to hear "You be the monster!" all day too!

Just think what my world would be if this crew figured out they could make a "Lava Potty Monster!" I am glad that no one is here to suggest such a thing or the maddness would never end!

What does all this say about Sharkboy and Lava Girl ... or as C calls her "Hot Lava Girl"?

Is the yellow supposed to represent pee for potty training? Very funny. potty humor is my favorite humor.

Yes it is. As well as Red for Hot Lava and the blue is the color (or close to it) of Telly the main monster in Monster's Inc!

T said...

ooops. I think Telly is on Sesame Street and Sully is on Monsters inc. My bad!

I'm actually trying to recover from a hot potty lava moment at this time.
