Home sick with scarlet fever

Dylan has scarlet fever so he can't go back to preschool until next week. Most of the symptoms are gone, but he may still be contagious. We've been trying to come up with fun things he can in the house since he can't go to the park and be around other children either. Here are a couple of silly videos. In one, he says "E' mio Dylan" (Dylan is mine). He's become kind of possessive about whose is who. He'll say "mommy is mine" or "Dylan is mommy's." In the video, when I ask him who mommy belongs to, first he says "me too" in Italian and then he says "yours" in English. It's basically a nonsensical conversation in two languages. Then in the other video, he is singing his version of Fra Martino, which is like the song in English "Are you sleeping? Are you sleeping? Brother John! Brother John!" (actually I remember singing it in the French for some odd reason - "Frère Jacques"). Yes, he is wearing a clippy in both videos. His hair is so long, I don't know what to do with it!
