GS8 saw a skit at 4H camp in June. A boy played a ventriloquist and his twin was the 'dummy'. They did a routine that featured a song GS8 had never heard. I saw the skit at the closing program, GS saw it for the second time then. He memorized the song and can mimic the 'dummy's' movements. He & I are going to do the skit for a talent show at our church campout in a couple weeks. I explained 'ad libbing' to him last night and he caught on perfectly. He is really looking forward to this.

He's always loved joke books and telling jokes at school. The problem is most of the kids his age didn't get the joke. I've had to discourage the class comedian role a bit.
