Simply to share...

Okay... I DID NOT teach her this...

but my 3 year old daughter separates out all the M&Ms (minis) by color and eats them one color at a time...












brown first.... blue last


















OMG... JUST LIKE I DO!

I couldn't believe it when I saw it.

Is this just some innate primal instinct? or is this just inherent in my genetic line?

It might be in your genetic line, tigger. It is cute though.

Ha, Ha that is so cute like mother like daughter. Thanks for sharing that with us.

BTW my 3 year old (Charzilla) just grabs handfulls of full size M&Ms and gobbles them up.

Hey! That's just like me.

She eats the brown first cuz it's the plainest color. At least that's why I always did. Is blue her fav color? That might be why she saves it for last. lol I used to do the same thing, but I would save one of each color to eat last. Then I'd start with the "ugly" colors...

 

[Choochoojr]

It is probably due to the fact that there may be more brown M&M's than the others

What is the color ratio in a bag of "M&M's" ?
Plain Variety:
30% brown
20% yellow
20% red
10% green
10% orange
10% blue

When i was young, i used to have "contests" with 'em.
Put 5 in your hand, eat them one at a time without looking,
and the last one left, moved to the 2ond round, and so on,
till i had a winner....my fav color was red, now blue... :tongue:

Anyone remember that "tan" color they used to have?

I STILL do that....lol. I always save the best for last
