concrete thinking

This is A.'s recount of Sunday School:

"I learned about Moses today.  Moses growed up from a baby in the water.  There was a king that wouldn't let people leave. they just had to work and work.

Today we talked about what we were scared of.  I'm scared of sharks, remember, I'm scared of sharks, Mommy?  Moses was scared of the burning bush but it was really just blocks with a red blanket on it.  We walked around it and I wasn't scared."

We tried to probe her with "Why was Moses scared?"  and "Who was really in the fire?"

The questions didn't work.  All we got was, "I wasn't scared, it was just blocks with a blanket on top."

I guess we have a few more Sunday school lessons to go....
