The People on the "Puter" Told Me

Chloe does not take consistent naps (and neither does Caleb!). Considering that I still selfishly like a little quiet time in the afternoon I implemented "Quiet Bins" awhile back. She has a bin for each day that she only gets to play with during nap time. They have worked pretty well and they keep her pretty occupied. Today Caleb finally asked for some quiet bins (I was waiting for this to happen!). Here is how he went about asking as I was tucking him into bed for his nap...

Caleb: I sure wish I was Chloe...
Me: Why's that?
Caleb: So I could have a quiet bin to play with.
Me: Oh, but Caleb you need to sleep. You're too little for quiet bins.
Caleb: But Mommy, the people on the puter (computer) told me that it's ok if kids that are 3 get quiet bins. They told me, they did!

I'm not sure what to think of his rationale...I'm wondering if it came from listening to me...SCARY!
