Kindergarten Politics

[lesliepear]

While I was in Alan's classroom today for his teacher conference today (which went well) I noticed they had done colorings of Democratic donkeys and Republican elephants which were arranged on the board as a chart (grouping the same symbols together). There were way more Republicans than Donkeys. I'm not sure how his teacher actually phrased the choice they had to make as to which to color (I'll ask Alan tonight). The only conclusion I can safely draw is that kindergarteners like elephants more than donkeys which political symbolism aside, I'd agree with!

My daughter likes elephants and every time she gets one, my democrat in-laws shudder.

My son seems to be for John McCain. No idea why though....
