I'll admit it, I have no idea who or what is talking. You have me stumped. You did a great job and I didn't see any errors. Have a great evening. Shirley

    One clue, Shirley: they are inanimate objects.
    Thanks for reading.

You have written this interaction with correct punctuation, handling dialogue well, but this is too obscure for me - I'd need a bit more context whether it's political, international, children's story characters, metaphorical/allegorical... it doesn't fit with anything I am familiar with. But maybe when you reveal what your intention is it will be clear and I will be embarrassed I didn't get it and feel foolish, as you indicate it is perhaps obvious!

    No need to be embarrassed. My husband always says when I know what I'm talking about, I think everybody else should know too. And he's right.
    The title is important. They are objects. It could be appropriate for children. And look at the first letter of each name.
    Thanks for your patience. When I have time, I'll post a little something with the answer.

    Nope. Still none the wiser. I don't have children so maybe I am out of touch with what's appropriate for children.

I must be tired, I can't guess! I thought maybe a swimming pool or a snow fort, but neither of those have a radiator. Very engaging and interactive!

    Hi,
    I don't think you were tired. I guess I made it too obscure. Not on purpose, of course.
    Thanks for bearing with me. Will post a little something with the answer.

    Many of my students came to the same conclusion because of Inside Out, and it's a really good one.
    The truth is I probably went too far with the riddle component.
    They're inanimate objects.
    Thanks for bearing with me. I'll post a little answer thing later.

I don't know if it's because I'm tired, or if I'm just clueless but I couldn't figure it out so I'm reviewing hoping you will tell me! Otherwise, I will have to ponder this forever. LOL
Can't wait to hear back!
All the best,
Jan

    Sorry, Jan.Neither third nor clueless. I think this is only easy when you know the answer. Will post it as soon as I have time.
