The 21st Century Learning

I have just returned from Seattle, where I visited my great granddaughter, whom I have not seen since she was 3 months old and now she just turned two
I was surprised by her development, her growth amount of words she knows. She appeared to be more than two more likely three just the way she related to me and other adults, the way she played with her cousin’s one a year older, one a year younger than she is.
She came to me and cuddled up to me knowing me only trough Skype on the computer screen. It was delightful.
Next day we all vent out for lunch, seven adults, and Lilly. I walked with her holding her hand while she was singing aloud. In the restaurant as we sat down around a big table, she was chattering nonstop in her language, which only her parents can understand
Her father took out the coloring book for her to play and placed it in front of her when in a very clear voice she said “no! I-phone” that was not a request; it was a command in a clear English, no baby language. She took the phone and with no hesitation opened it, searched for the cartoon s, found it and became much immersed in it, while her father was doing the coloring. It was a funny lovely scene.

Today’s children are so smart and advanced it seems that they are born with a chip in the brain or come with a special soft ware. No it is the today’s parents that are smarter advanced and well educated. When I think back to the time my children where babies, it seems that I lived in the dark ages. However, they turned out just perfect.
