Corwin has started demanding hot chocolate, which I find a bit odd when it’s nearly 90°F out, but that’s our boy. We finally told him that he could make it himself — how hard could it be? Challenging, it turns out. Corwin read the directions carefully but didn’t quite grasp the basic assumption that one would boil the water first, then mix the result in the cup. Instead, Corwin carefully measured the water and the mix and put them in to the tea kettle to boil them. It was quite the mess, but at least I finally understood why Corwin was so worked up about exactly how much water to put in the kettle.
