Toddler talks are intelligent sparks from kids that amazes one. Little talks of children which bring immense joy ought to be shared with the world at large. The joy is infectious, so catch it and spread it!

Sana is a cute little sunshine who simply exudes intelligence in every move of her's. She is two and a half years old with an air of independence. Here is an interesting account of her intelligence.

Sana's father happens to be my good friend. Once I visited their house with another friend. Sana shied away from us, may be because of the fact that I am used to handling her with a little affectionate dominance.

After her parent's continuous cajoling and persuasion she came with her popcorn bowl to the hall where we were seated. Her mother proudly said that she could recite 45 nursery rhymes. I asked her to recite a rhyme to which she turned a deaf ear. In between our talks I kept asking Sana to recite a rhyme. But my entreaties were not heard. So I raised my voice a little, pretending to be a little harsh.

“I said, tell a rhyme"

Softly but steadily came the reply, “Bacche ko nahi malum!" (The child doesn't know!)

A guffaw of laughter spread the area.
