J refers to The Grinch Who Stole Christmas as "the Ginch," and he's scared of the Ginch. S figured out, though, that J is really scared of the commercial on just before The Grinch on our DVD, which features The Wizard of Oz and a melting witch and all that. So, she convinced the boys to watch Word World instead, and then to watch The Grinch afterwards, once J had calmed down.
M, who loves The Grinch, grabbed the book off the shelf. While the boys watched Word World, he slowly took J through the book, page by page, to show him it wasn't scary. Then, he sat right next to J all through The Grinch with his arm around his shoulders. They both had a good time.
Our boys are so sweet, it's amazing.
