Time travel wasted on the young
George Pointon teaches 5-year-olds and asks them questions and shares
their answers on Twitter. The latest is: "If you could time travel, where would you go?" Alice answered, "to after school". Pointon wrote: "She could go anywhere. I mean literally wherever, whenever (said Shakira). But Alice has decided to use this omnipotence to move 47 minutes into the future. I took it personally to be honest. My lessons aren't that bad." Jack had a whole other approach to the question. "Back in time REALLY far." By "REALLY far", Jack meant 1999. So he could do nothing but go swimming. Toby's answer, had a bit more depth. His was "Meet my mum as a baby". Yes. Brilliant. Perfectly sweet film storyline that's probably already been done but who cares. Or "selfless and kind" Emma, "Floremma Nightingale", who said she would "take medicine back to old times". Oh, my heart. Mikey simply answered "Breakfast". "Normally I use this platform to dismantle Mikey's answers," Pointon wrote. "Not today. He is staying at his Nana's and she made chocolate chip pancakes this morning with a banana milkshake. I can only agree with him. Forget seeing Plato or The Beatles. Nan's pancakes please." And just when you thought it was all sweet, light-hearted fun, Ravi chimed in with "See my Grandpa again". "Cue the tears and grab the tissues, because he said they played marbles together. MARBLES. Oof."
