Guys. Ten and a half months later, my little kids FINALLY figured out the sign for coronavirus today. Despite seeing it pretty much daily for the last....probably nine and a half months...
It took a while for a sign for coronavirus to come about. There were a few different signs we saw at first, and it probably took a month before the consensus was formed. So the first month of the pandemic, we just used "CV" as our shorthand (ha!) for coronavirus. But once we learned the actual sign, all the old people switched over. The little kids doggedly stuck with "CV" until this week. And for some reason, Martha started using the actual sign. Today, Sam saw it and joked about Martha praying for cheese (the signs have...some...similarities...sorta....) (But Sam has never been bothered by things like that, his main goal is to be silly.) And BOOM - the sign is now popular. Everyone used it in their prayer.
Kid psychology on display here :) I wonder what other signs I should joke about to get my kids to use...hmmm....
