I'm not sure about this, but I'm ASSUMING my kids are not the only ones who do this.... or are they?Whenever they have a favorite movie (the one they watch over, and over, and over, and over again.....) - they assign "roles".
For example - Kung Fu Panda - Anya is Tigress, Nina is Viper, Alex is Monkey, Elia is Mantis, Nico is Po, Mike is Master Shifu, and I'm the wise turtle :-))
(Oh, do you want to hear a funny airplane story? On our way back from Switzerland they showed Kung Fu Panda on the plane, and Elia watched, and laughed and giggled.... . Once we were home, he talked about watching the movie, and he said with a shrug: "But it was in a different language"..... that goofball watched the movie in a foreign language, and never said a word. He told me "I know what they were saying anyway!" Silly kid!)
Same went for the movies "Cars", "Over the Hedge" , "Open Season", and so on.
Well, the latest craze at our house is about Scooby Doo. The boys have really liked Scooby for a long time, and the girls are totally into it too. Well, Nina more so than Anya.
To be honest with you, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND... Maybe I'm just not "American" enough (Mike said he grew up with Scooby), but I think this show is so out there. I'll spare you my other opinions about Scooby *LOL*
Anyway, all kids have their roles - again: Nico is Shaggy, Anya is Daphne, Alex is Freddy, Elia is Scooby, Nina is Velma, and Daddy is the Mystery machine *Haha*
And Miss Nina CANNOT stand watching Scooby Doo without her Velma glasses!! It's hilarious!
Here she is!

I love those Velma glasses. My nephews (6 & 8) are obsessed with Scooby. Emma never got into it, but we've had our share of movies that get played OVER and OVER and OVER. Josie is not at all interested in anything other than home movies. She's actually pretty crazy about wanting to see any home movies of Emma. She calls it "Emma TV". I may need to write a blog entry on Josie's obsession with Emma TV sometime.
I hope you're adjusting back to your home and US sleep schedule.
my kids do the same... they chose a character and they call each other by the name of the character and when i call them by their names they say "no mommy i am XYXY" how am i suppose to keep up with all these names....?? but antonio is scared of scooby doo... but we only have a "scary scooby movie"... he is a chicken lol
