Everything's a noun

We are reviewing nouns today and if you could hear my son you would think we've never covered this before. For the last two hours we've played the 'make mom crazy' game. It goes like this:

ds: Is tv a noun?
mom: Is it a person, place or thing?
ds: It's a thing.
mom: Then it is a noun.

4 second pause

ds: Is dog a noun?
mom: Is it a person, place or thing?
ds: It's a thing.
mom: Then it is a noun.

4 second pause

ds: Is Santa a noun?
mom: Is it a person, place or thing?
ds: It's a person.
mom: Then it is a noun.

4 second pause

ds: Is pillow a noun?
mom: Is it a person, place or thing?
ds: It's a thing.
mom: Then it is a noun.

4 second pause

ds: Is tree a noun?
mom: Is it a person, place or thing?
ds: It's a thing.
mom: Then it is a noun.

4 second pause

ds: Is lamp a noun?
mom: Is it a person, place or thing?
ds: It's a thing.
mom: Then it is a noun.

After an hour and a half"
ds: Mom! EVERYTHING'S A NOUN!
mom: Yes, son, everything's a noun.

4 second pause

ds: Is sister a noun?
mom: Is it a person, place or thing?
ds: It's a person.
mom: Then it is a noun.


He won. Mom is officially crazy.
