[quote=Anonymous] I've never seen my kid get excited about worksheets, or be motivated to ask more questions about a matching exercise. But he was fascinated to learn about how mixing colors creates different ones when we were coloring eggs this weekend. He learned about light, and the color spectrum. We brought out a prism and managed to break light down into several colors of the rainbow (not as easy to do as I had thought). He learned Roy G. Biv. We talked about refracting light and how it makes things look broken in the water. When a family has limited time together, and mine does because both parents work outside the home, I'd rather be able to spend time doing things that make my kid ask questions. That make him excited about learning. [/quote]
