Today, Ana was playing with a stick when she decided to break it.

And after she broke it she came running up and said "Connie! I broke my stick with using my hand!"

This might be a simple error like people make all the time - starting to say "with my hand" but deciding mid-word to go with "using my hand" instead - except that I feel certain I've heard her use the "with verbing" construction before, if not very recently.

I like it a lot, actually :)

From the sounds of it, they already say interesting things at her school. They might also have some of those really old educational videos along the lines of "Nickel: the Vital Metal!" or "Five Ways for Better Flossing."
