Has your toddler/preschooler ever gone on for days pretending to be a certain animal?

Question

My 28 month old is acting like a PIG. She just responds "Oink, oink...oink, oink oink oink"...to everything.

She even "oinked" for an hour at bedtime, and first thing the next morning, only said "oink oink" for the first half hour.

If I asked her anything, she would only respond "oink!", and walk around on all fours.

It was hard to not laugh.

Answer 1

My son has been responding to everything with kissing noises lately.  They figure something out and are obsessed with it for a few days then they change to something else!  Go ahead and laugh.....they are only little once!
