I'm thinking of an animal...

Some highlights from our guess-the-animal game over dinner:

Peter: Is it brown?
Brita: Some of them are.
Peter: Is it black and white?
Brita: Yes!
Peter: Does it make a sound like "Mooo"?
Brita: Yes!
Benton: Is it a dinosaur? Raawwwwrrrrr!!!!
Peter: No, Moooo
Benton: Neighhh!!
Peter: Benton, what says moo?
Benton: A rooster? Cock-a-doodle-doooo!
Peter: No, Benton. Moo. What animals says moo?
Benton: A cow.
Peter: Yes, ask Brita if it's a cow.
Benton: Moooooo!

We have to screen Benton's animals to help him answer questions. He told Andrea it was a dinosaur.
Peter: Is it small?
Benton: No.
Peter: Is it big?
Benton: No.
Peter: Is it small?
Benton: Yes. It starts really small.
Peter: Does it make a loud sound?
Benton: Yes!
Peter: Is it grey?
Benton: Yes!
Peter: Is it an elephant?
Benton: Yes!
(Andrea was looking confused after his responses, but he seemed so sure of himself.)

Peter: Alright, now it's Mom's turn.
Andrea: Ok, I'm thinking of an elepha.. *pause* Rats. I mean an animal. And it's not an elephant.
