Grandma’s Favourite

(A child and Grandpa sit on the floor with old paint tins.)

Child: Grandpa, what is this colour?

Grandpa: That is blue. Like the sky.

Child: And this one?

Grandpa: That is yellow. Like the sun.

Child: And this?

Grandpa: That is brown. Like my old boots.

Child: And this little one?

Grandpa: Ah. That is pink. That was your grandma’s favourite.

(The child holds the pink tin close.)

Child: Then this one is my favourite too.
