Unexpected flashlight usage

I got Megan a flashlight for her birthday, because she wasn't thrilled with the last one I got her (was blue and required cranking), and she said she wanted to read books under her covers. That wasn't quite how she used it last night. Apparently she was pretending that her new barbie died and she was using it so she could make her "walk towards the light." I have no idea where she got that from.
