A Diego Education

Reagan is a HUGE Diego fan.  Sometimes it surprises me how much she knows about animals, and then I realize.... Diego.  We were playing with the animal cards today, and one fell on the ground.  Reagan promptly said "Puma fell down".  Puma?  Really?  I picked it up, and sure enough... it was a puma.
So then I wanted to know how many animal names she really DID know, so I started quizzing her.  The basics were a cinch - bear, monkey, spider, seagull, alligator.  But then she also knew puma, jaguar, cheetah.  She didn't know tapir ( I wouldn't have either).  When I showed her a picture of an armadillo, though, I had to laugh.

Mom: "What's this, Reagan?"
She looked at it quizzically for a second before giving her answer.

"Pillow pet!"
