"Papi, the tummy is hurting.", said the Little Girl.
"Did you eat chocolate or sodas ?", asked Papi.
"No!".
"Good, you know that chocolate and sodas make you sick, you can't eat them", said Papi.
"Yes Papi!", answered the Little Girl.
"I am going to fetch a thermometer, to see if you have fever, OK?", said Papi.
"OK!".

Papi fetched the thermometer, he checked the temperature of the Little Girl.
"Seams you are OK. Let's just rest a bit here with Papi".
"But the tummy is hurting a lot.", said the Little Girl.
"Let's go to the doctor."
"NO!", shouted the Little Girl, "the doctor gives me an injection, I don't like!".
"But that injection makes you feel better", assured Papi.
"No! I don't want to!", insisted the Little Girl.
"Let's wait a bit and see if you feel better, here take this special drink Papi made, it has some vitamins, you will be stronger."
"OK Papi.", agreed the Little Girl.
When Papi left the room the Little Girl sipped on the vitamin drink. Suddenly she saw two figures behind the sofa. They where her puppets, Fuchs the Fox and nurse Minnie.
"Hello Little Girl, your daddy told me you are sick, I come here to make you better", said nurse Minnie.
"No, you are a bad nurse, you are going to hurt Little Girl, I don't allow you to come close!", said Fuchs the fox.
"Yes, I come to make the Little Girl better, I have a special injection that kills the sick bugs.", said nurse Minnie.
"What are the sick bugs ?", asked Fuchs the fox.
"Are small little bugs that you can't see and get into children to make them sick !", answered nurse Minnie.
"Oh! No! we don't want sick bugs, how do you make them go away ?", asked Fuchs the fox.
"Look here, you see Peter the spider there ? Look what it does when the injection comes close...", said nurse Minnie.
"It is running away in all the 8 legs!", laughed Fuchs the fox.
"Yes! The bugs also ran away from the injection!", said nurse Minnie.
"OK, I am the protector of bad dreams for the Little Girl, you are not a bad dream, you can com and help the Little Girl!", said Fuchs the fox.
Nurse Minnie gave the injection to the Little Girl. At first the Little Girl was feeling bad, but as she listened to Fuchs the fox singing all her favorite songs, she started to get better.
"Hello Little Girl, do you feel better, did the injection make you better sending away the little sick bugs ?", asked Papi.
"Yes Papi, I am better now, I like nurse Minnie".

The Little Girl did not want to sleep. She knew there was a big spider, a big giant, and a big one eyed monster, waiting for her on her sleep. But she was tired. The Little Girl was getting more and more frightened as she fell the sleepiness crawling in.
The Indian girl said hello to the Little Girl. The Indian girl told the story about the tribe shaman that could catch the bad dreams. The Little girl got excited, she wanted to talk to the tribe shaman. But to get to the Tribe shaman they had to go through a dangerous path to show how courageous they were. Only the courageous could talk with the tribe shaman.

The first trial was the path of the spider. The Little Girl and the Indian girl had both to pass near the big spider with legs bigger then the girls. And the Little Girl and the Indian girl both passed by the big spider. The spider seeing that the girls were courageous did not even try to get near them.
The second trial was the path of the giant. The Little Girl  and the Indian girl had both to pass near the big giant with arms bigger than the girls. And the Little Girl and the Indian girl both passed by the big giant. The giant seeing that the girls were courageous did not even try to get near them.
The third trial was the path of the one eyed monster. The Little Girl and the Indian girl had both to pass near the big one eyed monster with a head bigger than the girls. And the Little Girl and the Indian Girl both passed by the big one eyed monster. The one eyed monster seeing that the girls were courageous did not even try to get near them.

Indians in the City

How are your trips through the city with your child ? Do all the details pop-up ? Does your child interact with the surroundings ? What is like a simple thing as a bus station ? or an underground train trip ? Do you get those magazines with toys ? Tell me your story.
here is mine...

The little girl was excited, Papi promised to take her to the city. Papi was going to fetch something complicated, but didn't matter, it was always fun to go with Papi to the city.
Hot day, very hot day!
Down the stairs and out the door, the little girl ran down as well as the first 40 meters out of the door.
"Papi, is to hot! I want my cappy"
Poor Papi, going back home and fetch the cap for the little girl. But it couldn't be any cap, Papi new better, it had to be the Football Club cap. No other chance! The little girl had begged for 2 all months for the cap. Not that she understood what 2 months meant, but Papi understood it, and after all that intensity begging, even though Papi was not from the same Football Club, he couldn't continue ignoring the requests from the little girl.
They finally managed to get going, at first she was running around curious with everything they found on the way. Be it a rock out of place, some fallen leaves with an interesting shape, or simply a butterfly.
The little girl always managed to wonder Papi. Papi wouldn't even look twice to a rock on the side of the street, much less to recognize the shape of a crocodile in that rock.
"Papi, look Papi, the crocodile, it must be looking for Captain Hook."

They soon arrived at the bus stop, but oddly as they approached the bus stop they seemed to be getting smaller and smaller, or either the bus stop was getting bigger and bigger. The little girl was afraid and Papi understood why, we could see many spiderwebs involving the bus stop. The webs where very big, and we had to avoid the spider webs together with the hundreds of busy ants that ran all over the place. We saw some ants getting caught in the webs, and the little girl was afraid when the big spider seamed to be coming in our direction. It was a scary sight, the legs of the small spider seemed to be 2 meters wide.
Papi caught some sticks on the floor and tossed into the spider web in front of the spider. Has Papi threw the sticks they would get glued to the web, seeming to just float there. Somehow, in the chaotic setting, the little girl laughed and said that the sticks hanging in the web looked like a birthday party. It really was so. Suddenly the spider did not seem so frightening. Just in time to see the big red lady bug arrive to get us out of the way of the spider.
The little girl and Papi entered the bus, it was cool, the air conditioned freshened both as they got in and sat. In such a hot day, this was a real pleasure, entering the fresh bus renewed the wish to go to the city. The little girl was almost discouraged from continuing the trip. Soon the bus arrived at the train station, and out again into the hot day.
"Papi, I want water".
Papi felt desperate with this cry. Where could he get water? Need to look for it at the train station. They moved on in the direction of the train station.
"Papi, don't want to go there."
"But there is water there, come, Papi will get you a bottle of water"

"NO, DON'T WANT TO GO THAT WAY"
"Why is that?"
"In that cavern there is a big bad dragon!"
Papi looked into the entrance to the underground train. He was staring into the lair of the big dragon that had all the pirate treasure there.
"Come, Papi has the crystal sword, I will protect you, the dragon has a treasure of cold drinks and ice cream, we will fight the dragon and get cold water, with luck we will get the ice cream as well".

And off they both went into the lair of the big bad dragon. Papi was holding his phone with the light-saber app making the dreadful sounds of an epic sword fight. They managed to pass the corridors and reemerge at the ground level once again. When they reemerged at the platform, the little girl was holding a bottle of cold water from the spoils of the big bad dragon lair. The spoils also included a bow and 3 rubber arrows.
"Papi, now I can protect you with my bow!"
When we entered the train, many other fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, seemed to have all passed through the same epic battle. Many of the kids had bows and rubber arrows. They started all chatting in their secret language. The city today was receiving an invasion of little Indians.
