Is "basket" a place or a thing?

Studying nouns, we had the sentence "A puppy was in the basket."

The girls had to categorize the nouns as person, place or thing.

Emma Grace asked, "Is 'basket' a place or a thing?" I responded, "Good question. What do you think?"

Her answer was priceless: "To me its a thing. But to a puppy it is a place."

Awesome! Kids really know how to think outside the box... or basket, as the case may be! :)
