bolcanos are erupting!!!

Madeline and I were visiting with our friends Suzi and Sabine this weekend when Madeline discovered a baby toy that she was curious about. It was a barn that had letters and shapes that drop inside the roof once placed in the correct slot. Suzi was asking Madeline to recognize her letters and then asked her to name a word that starts with each of the four letters. Here's how the conversation went...

Suzi: what's this letter?
Madeline: a
Suzi: what word starts with a?
Madeline: apple!
Suzi: and this letter?
Madeline: that's a b
Suzi: what word starts with b?
Madeline: bolcano (I think she meant volcano)
Suzi: okay...how about button? or book?
Madeline: balloon!
Suzi: what's this letter?
Madeline: c
Suzi: can you think of a word?
Madeline: carrot
Suzi: great! how about this letter?
Madeline: that's a d
Suzi: and what word starts with d?
Madeline: daddy!!!
