What's the Password?

As children often love to do, Julia put a scarf up across the doorway to the room we do school in this morning, and declared that I couldn't pass.

"What's the password?" she said, standing her ground.

"I love you?" I guessed.

"No."

"You love me?" I tried again.

"No. It starts with 'sch'....", she offered.

"School is awesome? School is great?"

"No."

"School is going to go really long if you don't let me through?" I tried.

"No"

"Okay. I give up. What is it?" I say. "

"SCHOOL!" Julia says, as if it were just so obvious.

I never would have thought of that.

THEN she tells me,
"You know, you could have just done the limbo." :-)

Maybe you could give her a password to end the school day...and if she can't guess it...another hour of class?
