my son who is now 15 used to say "can i have a bowl of colins " instead of cornflakes !! WE DID NOT EVEN KNOW ANYONE CALLED COLIN so god knows where that came from,he also used to think that the postman brought the snow with him in his bag (we are from u.k where it obviously does not snow alot)
A childhood belief about speaking
others believed things like this
- i was convinced that snow was pink, i was devastated the first i saw real snow.Anon
- I used to believe that I could smell when it was going to snow.
(I still can!)— sw - I used to think that snow was rain still in the bag.— Robert
- when i was a kid i used to believe that snowcones come from snow— Marianthy
- My dad told me that in Florida, snow is orange.— Belle
- I used to believe that snow on the ground was clouds that were too tired to fly.— alex
