Also in the annals of Things I Never Thought Would Need To Be Said in Our House Until I Had a Kid. Two signs E has had us make for her:
DANGER: NO SLEEPING AREA
Basically every plastic bag E sees has an icon and/or explicit DANGER warning that one is not supposed to put the bag on one's head, so it's something that E understands very well (if not, perhaps, exactly why not). She decided recently she wanted to make a play "store," and of course plastic bags to put one's purchases in were part of this store, and are now in a big pile in the corner. Of course, you wouldn't want to sleep in this corner, because then your head would be unacceptably near the bags, as she knows is not safe.
Hence, the sign.
DO NOT SIT ON BABY JESUS
D's mother gave E an Advent activity that involves moving Baby Jesus around to various locations. One of them was a chair. So E was, naturally, quite concerned that someone might sit on Baby Jesus!
