Making Stakements

Oliver: "dad, Dad, DAD... I am asking you a question"
Dad: "What Oliver?"
Oliver: "I want to go see Dora the Explore, Diego and Boots the Monkey, but that's not a question aye? That's a stakement."
Me: "You mean a statement?"
Oliver: "Yeah a statement... that wasn't a question... I'm a bit silly."

At not even 3.5 if Oliver knows the difference between questions and statements, I have serious concerns about what he will learn for the first year or two at school...
