Certainly not the latter. Because then if he sees a dead leaf, he'll fear that he's dead & you will have to stay up with him all night. I would just teach him English the normal way. Pirsig has shown that the MoQ can be expressed in this way. If he later thinks he needs to distinguish between leaves & organic patterns of value (& I don't think he ever will), he can wait until he's older.
