Another testament to our non-religious household: 5yo, singing "Go tell it on the Mountain" (learnt for a Christmas concert), explains the line "...where cheese and rice was borne" to his 3yo sibling, saying: "That's all the food they have up there."
We explained it all – after uproarious laughter 😂
