Kira (out of the blue while playing Dora game on my computer): Mama, does an anteater have a prehensile tail?
Me: Um...
Kira, sensing the pause: Prehensile means it could hang from it
Me, defensively: I knew what it meant! (right) Um, yes, they do, they definately have a prehensile tail.
Me: Why?
Kira: Well, I was wondering if an anteater could eat an ant in a tree, because ants climb trees, and if it had a prehensile tree it could.
Oh, well sure. Clearly we've been watching too much of animal planet...
