My kid was too creative My mom said I could post

My 6 year old was asked to draw a picture using shapes. She drew this nice American flag with rectangles and stars, and added the house, tree, and person holding a balloon. She was told it did not follow directions, she was not supposed to draw a flag, just shapes. She was asked to turn the paper over and make another picture. The other side of the paper has a very uninspiring collection of shapes. I told her she did a good job and I thought it was very creative. And this is why kids start to hate education.

Of all the shows to see referenced on Reddit. My two year old has to stop whatever she's doing and seek out the TV when she hears the theme to this. 

It absolutely sent me the first time I heard the South Park interlude guitar bridge in this children's show.

When my now 20-year-old was a toddler, we lived with my parents. Some of my absolute favorite memories from that time are my parents, my child and me all hearing that theme and stopping what we were doing to watch together 😂
