Question for you...
Posted 12th February, 2008 in by Andrea
What things come in 4's? I'm asking for a reason, but I don't want to limit anyone's answers...so let's brainstorm:
- winter, spring, summer, fall
- heart, diamond, spade, club
- north, south, east, west
- up, down, left, right
- morning, afternoon, evening, night (? - that's probably a stretch)
- --- help me think of more!
