Nadine gets Chinese homework every Friday. It's actually just a picture for her to color, with an accompanying Chinese rhyme or song that she'd have been taught during the week. The objective of the homework is to encourage parents to revise the Chinese rhyme/song with the kids.
Last Sunday, I had to coerce her to do her colouring. She did it reluctantly. Coloured the rabbit's head yellow for a bit, then decided to colour other parts. After she completed the ears, tail, eye, carrot and ground, she said she's done.
I said to her, "what about the body?"
Her reply, "rabbit is supposed to be white like that!"
Mental note to self - I must not let my daughter out-smart me. Not yet!
