[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know what your preschooler’s library looks like, but our elementary school library includes an office in the back. It’s just a workspace, not THE office, but I can see why a little one would call it an office. There was enough truth in his first story that there might be some truth to his second one that no adult has pieced together yet. It doesn’t sound like he’s fabricating wild tales. I think it’s totally developmentally normal for preschoolers to be unreliable reporters without intentional lying. This doesn’t sound worrisome. It’s also totally normal for kids around first grade to attempt to impress other kids with lies, so be prepared for that in a couple years. Kids tell each other that they have a full size roller coaster in their backyard or that their mom is a zookeeper and they’re raising lion cubs at home. Some of it will be crazy![/quote]
