[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fun question!

DC likes world building. They create languages, including the histories of the evolution of the languages, for the world. They make detailed, gorgeous maps. They consider what kinds of cultures the inhabitants would have based on their geographic location, natural resources, and prior contact with other cultures. They develop the cities differently depending on whether or not the culture uses appropriate urban planning or not.

They also get into baking and cooking sometimes.

Art is the biggest one, though. Just..lots and lots and lots of art. [/quote]
Omg, I need to introduce your kid to mine. Mine loves inventing places and languages. She’s interested in geopolitics. Her pretend play when she was younger involved the United Nations. She and a friend are writing their own story set in Yellowstone. They’ve researched its history, made maps, invented a language, created extensive family trees for their characters, and come up with an origin story that goes back more than 100 years.

Anyway, back to the OP… My dd has fixated on the following interests: animals, herbs, outer space, the extinction of the dinosaurs, early humans, politics, history, the Warrior Cats book series, drawing cats on the computer.[/quote]
