Children at play
We have been enjoying the playgrounds in Prague. There are four within walking distance of our apartment (at least 4 that I have found). The other day we met a little czech girl named Christy. It was fascinating to watch the kids play. Christy is 3 years old so a perfect playmate for Sofia. Christy kept speaking to me in Czech so I had to tell her mom that I don't speak czech (which I said in czech since her mom didn't speak English either.) Christy, being a typical 3 year old, didn't care and just kept talking to me in czech. Sofia and Christy started to play together. Sofia would go down the slide while Christy waited at the bottom acting as a gate at the end of the slide. As Sofia would approach the end of the slide Christy would lift her arm as though she were raising a gate. They both thought that was very funny. Sofia then started to act as a gate for Christy. Then they played in the sand pit together. It was great to watch to kids play together and have fun even though they couldn't speak the same language. Apparently kids have a language of their own.
