Palindrome (noun)
A word, line, verse, number, sentence, etc. reading the same backwards as forwards, as Madam, I’m Adam, or Poor Dan is in a droop
Saturday morning, Rose woke up at 6:00 am, comes into our bedroom and asks if she can sleep with me until it’s time to get up, Andy had to work on Saturday. At 7:00 am Rose wakes me and asks if it’s time to get up.
Mom: “We can get up now, let’s get some breakfast.”
Rose- jumps to her feet, and says very excitedly: “Mommy, did you know a palindrome is the same forwards and backwards, like Mom and Hannah?”
Mom: “Yes, you’re right; those are palindromes, where did you learn this?”
Rose: “Miss Cindy from school taught it to us”
I think she was waiting all morning to tell me that.
For the rest of the day and weekend, we tried to think of other palindromes and here is the short list we came up with.
Mom
Dad
Hannah
Noon
Kayak
Poop
