Leah was watching the Backyardigans and in the episode two of the characters were trying to get to another two characters before sundown because they were in the mountains and it was full of snow, so they didn't want to get stuck in the dark. So one of the characters says "Hurry up we need to get there before sundown" and Leah says "MOM! I didn't know the Backyardigans were Jewish! That is cool."
I explained to her that not all sundowns were Shabbos and that not all Jewish people observed Shabbos the traditional way they do at my job. I still think its pretty neat she connected the show to something she has learned about at the shul.
