'as x as y' similes

Anya is exploring the wonderful world of similes and is peppering her language with a wide variety (all her own inventions of course... none of this widely-used rubbish for her..)

Here is yesterday's collection:
As white as a snowbear
As sweet as a cherry tomato
As cold as a horse
As hot as a cow
As tired as a moose
As hungry as a caterpillar
As happy as a rainbow (I like this one!)
As sad as a baby

And a new one this morning; as comfy as a house.

I asked her if houses were particularly comfortable and she said that they were because you could sit down or lie on something soft if you wanted to and therefore they were comfy!

She came in from school this morning and announced that the sun was making her skin too hot. She disappeared into the house to 'do something about it' and came out like this....



Not sure how effective it was at cooling her skin down!! I noticed that all but the sun hat had been removed about 10 minutes later.
