When my child was young enough that they couldn’t talk but could express themself, once I put them to bed and told them it was time to sleep. They squinted their eyes to pretend they were closed and said “honk shoo, honk shoo.”
I was flabbergasted. Turns out their mother had taught them that as a kind of meditation to progress towards sleep, but I didn’t know that and briefly thought they’d manifested it on their own.

Little kids are so funny with this kind of thing. They’ll go from these useless uninteresting helpless little blobs, hit you with a sudden flash of personality, then just sit there and smile/ giggle at your dumbfounded face
