My kid is smarter than I am
Aug. 6th, 2005 01:41 pmRemember this from last week? I shot these yesterday because I figured nobody would believe me otherwise. Kieran was teaching my husband the proper alphabetical/geographical order of the states by midweek, all on a multi-colored placemat. The wood puzzle without the unique state colors is a recent transition as is pointing them out on his globe.
Kieran has a thing for older women, we're keeping him away from New Orleans anyway
All done, United States!
He's also well on his way to being trilingual with picking up Spanish at preschool while not losing the French I've taught him. He's still not much of a conversationalist, but we're seeing that starting to change in his interactions with us and others.
Thankfully Kieran still loves blowing bubbles in the backyard and having nightly dance parties downstairs (our latest is a half hour of Wolfsheim, complete with quasi-conga line) or I'd really be worried about how to keep him entertained. I never got into Schoolhouse Rock since TV was tightly regulated for me. If a 37-month-old can learn the 50 states this way in a week from a song, the CDs probably wouldn't hurt though.
