This Is a Library

This afternoon I overheard two siblings (a girl age 7 or so, and a boy age 5) as they looked at some dinosaur books.  Unfortunately the dinosaur books are on high shelves, so the kids found themselves a stool to help them reach.  Even still, the kids really had to stretch to reach the highest shelf.  As they were looking at books I heard the older sister tell her brother:

"This is a library, not a jungle gym."

I'd be willing to bet that the girl picked this phrase up from Mom or Dad.  It's much cuter, though, coming out of the mouth of a 7-year-old.
