children and literature

The window of my bedroom faces directly onto the tiny backyard of the house behind our new place. In that house lives a young family, and I usually hear the small children playing or shouting in the morning before they go to school. Even with the window closed, I could discern what the two little boys were talking about this morning as they played with their Fisher Price basketball net:

little boy 1: "The question is, 'to be or not to be?'"
little boy 2: "What's that?"
little boy 1: "It's an old saying!"
*a short pause as they continued to play*
little boy 1: "To be late, or not to be late?"
little boy 2: "Umm.... NOT to be late!"

The kids are probably between 5 and 7 years old... Already interpreting Shakespeare!
Must be because we live in the Glebe...
