Thank you so much! Our 6.5 year old has just had us LOL as he looked at the pictures very seriously and then said 'but do the sheep eat them then?' ...
Oh, dear! A quick lesson in the difference between cotton and wool! To which he then said 'but you get cotton wool ....'
I don't know whether to be ashamed of his lack of knowledge/confusion ... considering how much time this child has spent around craft projects, including knitting, knitting with thick cotton thread, and sewing with cloth, and the time spent experimenting with crafts himself ... or whether to just continue laughing at him!
