For this experience i wanted to see a bit of how children think… so i drew some nonsense doodles on paper and asked a three year old what they were… I was surprised to find that he wasn't as imaginative as i would have though… he seemed to think about it pretty logically, and have some hesitation to answer my questions incorrectly. I assured him there were no wrong answers, but he didn't seem to think so…
