I assume she's been talking about Frozen with other children since she started nursery. Because in the past fortnight she's declared her name is Anna and I am Elsa.
It was fun at first. We had pretend snowball fights and made pretend snowmen and bunnies and mice and elephants, and even a pretend ice castle in the living room. She'd declare Now you're Queen Elsa
and Now you're little Princess Elsa.
I found her singing Let it go very loudly in public toilets a bit disquieting.
Then on day two she decided her mum was Other Elsa.
On day three I was demoted full time to Princess Elsa and her mum was Queen Elsa. It felt like my old job all over again. (I'm sorry, you're not Scandinavian enough to do your job
)
Now she's still demanding we call her Anna. Whenever we call her by her real name, she says Say Anna
. Every. Single. Time.
She even introduces herself to people as Anna. I suspect she likes it better than her actual name since small children have an easier time pronouncing it.
She's seen the movie, in full, once, plus that time on the plane when she saw half of it. So, good for her with the good memory.
She told us this will last for several weeks. It can't be over fast enough for my tastes. I'm a bit tired of the whole princess thing, but I am more sick of being introduced has her sister.
