How old are you?

We're teaching the Duke numbers, and a useful way to do this is to play the "How old are you?" game.

And it goes like this:

"Duke, how old are you?"
"Um.. I don't know"
"You're two!"
"I'm two!"

"Little Miss, how old are you?"
"I'm three-and-a-half!"
"Duke, how old is your sister?
"Um.. I don't know"
"She's three!"
"Free!"

"How old are you, Duke?
"I'm two!"

you get the picture...

So for a bit of fun we add in

"How old is Mummy?"
"Um... I don't know"
"Thirty-seven!"
"Firty-sewen!"
"How old is Duke?"
"Two!"
"Yes! How old is your sister?"
"Um...free!
"Yes! Well done!

and I'm thinking, yay! He's getting it!

So we go
"How old is Mummy?
and without the slightest hesitation he chirps up...

"Old!"
