Hi Joe, When my grandson was still very young, I remember teaching him to see things. He was so beautiful I loved showing and naming everything with him. We would go out into the yard and investigate everything. It was a thrill experiencing his mind's development. Now he's seven and he has quite a sophisticated vocabulary, but it hasn't outgrown his curiosity. He recently spent a day at my place and when we went for a walk, he stop to investigate all that moved and didn't move. The questions were never ending and wonderful.
