5 Year Old Uses Sticky Notes and Instructional Videos

When my kids were little, I knew there was too much TV viewing in their lives when they'd say something like "But mom, Juicy Juice is a juicier juice!" As they stuck one in my grocery cart.

Two decades later, I knew Eva had seen too much TV when she sat down in my ergonomic desk chair, tilted my monitor to her level and said,

"Pookie. Go to www.pbskids.org."

As soon as I typed it in, I was told I could leave, she could handle it from here. I watched her click on this and click on that, browse the games, color in some pictures, then she began listening to something. I turned away and when I turned back, the monitor was blank, she was pushing her chair back and tugging on her Grampsy, "Hey, I'm gonna go outside and build a nest for a birdie, wanna help?" He squinted, "I don't know how to build a nest." No problem, she had it under control. "I just watched a video on how to build a nest, see, I have a list of what we need!" And she held out the sticky note she had written while watching the video:
-

"All we need is grass, leaves and mud. Let's go!"

. . . and sure enough, they built a nest.
