Oh, Snap!

Jacob has been trying to snap for a very long time. Greg has been showing him how. I cannot snap. On Thursday night, Jacob did it!

Jacob: Mom, look! (demonstrates snapping)

Me: Wow, Jake! I'm so proud of you!

Jacob: Now you try.

Me: Um, okay. (tries)

Jacob: No, Mom. You have to push your fingers together really hard, like this. (demonstrates)

Me: Okay. (tries again)

Jacob: Mom, your finger has to hit on your hand right here. (points to the spot on his palm by his thumb)

Me: I see. (tries AGAIN)

Jacob: Here -- Let me help you. (moves my fingers in place and tries to make them work)

Jacob: Why is it not working?
