"What Is Your Favourite Part Of The School Day?..." Part One: Poppy on Ruby

One of my fellow "Dadsquad" members recently posted an article on his blog where he asked his son 15 questions. It is a great read and can be found on his site... 

http://www.onehullofadad.co.uk/2017/03/15-things-ive-learnt-about-my-son.html

It got me thinking about the twins and how much of this stuff I know about them which then got me thinking to how much they know about each other. So I have totally stolen his idea (don't worry, he knows), tweaked it and used it to quiz the twins and see what they say. This is the first part in which I asked Poppy questions about Ruby and then asked Ruby the same questions. Welcome to what I like to call:

TWIN vs TWIN: PART ONE: POPPY ON RUBY

To do this I took Poppy away from Ruby and asked her these questions about her sister - I then asked Ruby the same questions to see if any of them matched up. Here are my findings: 

Q1: What is Ruby's favourite part of the school day?

Poppy: Playing with *best friend*
Ruby: Playing with the dinosaurs

Q2: What is Ruby's favourite thing to eat?

Poppy: Chicken nuggets and waffles
Ruby: Chicken nuggets and waffles

Q3: What is Ruby's favourite flavour of ice cream?

Poppy: Chocolate
Ruby: Chocolate

Q4: What is Ruby's favourite song?

Poppy: "Shut up and Dance"
Ruby: "Shut up and Dance"

Q5: What is Ruby's favourite movie?

Poppy: "Brave"
Ruby: "Brave"

Q6: What is Ruby's favourite TV show?

Poppy: "The Lion Guard"
Ruby: "Tom and Jerry"

Q7: What is Ruby's favourite toy?

Poppy: Coda (her stuffed bear)
Ruby: T-Rex

Q8: What does Ruby want to do for a job when she grows up?

Poppy: Be a bear
Ruby: Be a T-Rex

Q9: What is Ruby's favourite thing to do with her family?

Poppy: Hang out with Auntie Spot
Ruby: Going on adventures

Q10: If Ruby could be any animal for a day...what animal would she be?

Poppy: A bear
Ruby: A dog

So out of 10 questions Poppy got 4 of them bang on! The others that she didn't get I would say if Poppy was asked to give 3 answers for each one that Ruby's answers would have been there. It is also quite apparent that Poppy maybe thinks Ruby is a little obsessed with Bears...

My favourite answer is to Q9 - I love that her favourite thing to do is to go on Adventures as we do love going on an adventure. An unplanned one is even better.

I am going to do the reverse of this next week to see how well Ruby knows Poppy.

Until then...

Me And My Dad: Video Games

Me And My Dad:   1: Video Games   Growing up my Dad and I had a great relationship. I don't have any vivid memories of him shouting at me or us fighting over trivial things (although I am sure they did happen). Looking back over my memories of growing up with my Dad I can totally see where my love for movies, video games, horror, reading, quizzing and cooking came from. For my next few posts I am going to delve in to each of these a little further...starting with Video Games!   I am now 36...my Dad is 64. Two days ago he sent me a WhatsApp message with a link to a video on YouTube for a recent video game called "Thimbleweed Park". He wrote:   "Have you seen this? It is done by some of the guys who did Monkey Island and Maniac Mansion. It look's great"   Reading that made so many good memories float back from the late 80s/early 90s when my Dad and I were obsessed with Point and Click Adventure Games on the PC. I was really lucky to have a...

Me And My Dad: Movies

Me and My Dad:   2: Movies   Like a lot of people my Dad and I share a love of movies. From being a child up until now we still watch movies together on a regular basis and I have great memories of watching movies with him. In this post I am going to share my memories of 5 movies that we watched together and why they have stuck with me. Here goes... 1: The Rescuers Down Under I love animated movies - always have done and always will. Growing up my Mam was not a huge fan of cartoons so we very rarely watched cartoon movies as a family and watched live action movies instead. From an early age I was introduced to some absolute classics such as "Gremlins", "The Goonies", "Private Benjamin", "Overboard", "Big Business", "Indiana Jones" and a whole load more. But my Dad and I would watch animated movies together on a regular basis. The very first movie I went to see at the cinema was with my Dad and we went to see ...

"What Did You Think Of.....Captain Underpants?"

For our latest review we took the twins to see "Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie". I say "we"...I let Kate take them with their Aunty Spot while I sat in Costa and read my book with a latte. Here is their review:   Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie       WARNING: COULD CONTAIN SPOILERS     Describe "Captain Underpants" in a nut shell:   Ruby:  It is about a man who is a teacher and a boy who finds a ring and turns him in to Captain Underpants.    Poppy:   Two little boys who love making comics and there was a nasty teacher and they turned him into Captain Underpants.    Kate/Spot:  Comic books come to life.      What was your favourite bit of "Captain Underpants?"   Ruby:  Every time the boy said "Freeze" and talked to the camera (broke the 4th wall).     Poppy: When he was changing to Captain Underpants and the...
