As per yesterday’s post, my 5-year-old got a new toy unicorn yesterday and is very excited about it. She slept with it last night and when I woke her up for school, informed me that unicorn horns can shock people.
Me: Oh, really, sweetie, where did you hear that?
Emily: Ana (her sister) told me
Me: What else did she tell you about unicorns?
Emily: A unicorn needs to charge its power at night or it will die
Me: maybe it won’t die – maybe it’ll just sleep until it can charge its power
Emily: no, it will die
Me: ok…
Let me break in here to say that my older daughter, Ana, who is now 8 – was infatuated with Unicorns between the ages of 5 and 6. Here’s a snapshot of her partial collection:

The big white unicorn was $45 at F.A.O. Schwartz – it’s a Melissa & Doug Unicorn and was truly the love of Ana’s life for about a year. So, I approached Ana to see what sort of rules she’d come up with for unicorns. I know you want to know.
1. Unicorns can’t get their horns wet. I’m not clear on what happens if the horns get wet, when I asked what they do when it rains Ana shrugged and said they flew home
2. Unicorns can fly. How can they fly? Because of the horn! (makes perfect sense if you’re 5)
3. Unicorns were originally born from horses (p.s. don’t use this as a learning experience to introduce your child to the concept of “evolution” - trust me on this)
4. Unicorns recharge their power via a special stone which is located somewhere in a forest
5. Unicorn horns can shock you (as stated above)
I’m sure there are more rules, but the bus came and carried the children away at this point. I’ve forgotten half the rules now. I hope I don’t get stung by a unicorn for my forgetfulness.
