Thinks Meaning for Kids

Lunch Conversations

Tara: "Ravi, why are you staring at your lunch box like it’s a test?"

Ravi: "I’m just thinking if I should eat now or save it for later."

Tara: "My Amma packed lemon rice today. I think it smells like sunshine."

Ravi: "Sunshine doesn’t have a smell. I think it smells like the school bus."

Tara: "You always think of buses and maths and serious things."

Ravi: "Well, my brain thinks about everything. Even your noisy lunch."

Tara: "It’s not noisy, it’s happy. I think it’s the best lemon rice in the world."

Ravi: "Now you’re making me think my dosa is boring."

Tara: "What do you think about sharing? One bite each?"

Ravi: "Hmm… I think I’ll miss my dosa if I share."

Tara: "Just one bite, yaar. I think you’ll like it and stop making that grumpy face."

Ravi: "Who said my face is grumpy?"

Amma (walking past): "I think both your faces will smile if you share."

Ravi: "Okay, okay. I think Amma is right."

Tara: "See? Your brain thinks it, my brain thinks it. Sharing time."

Ravi: "I think your lemon rice is actually better than it smells."

Tara: "And I think your dosa is perfect with my lemon rice."

Ravi: "Now I think recess is my favorite subject."

Tara: "Same. My mind thinks this is our best lunch ever."
