Children

I never would have guessed it, but people are telling me I’m good with little kids. Yesterday I spent few hours helping a three year old build a house with building blocks. Initially I thought she was put off because I spent so much time correcting her on what blocks to use, but today’s she’s asked me three times if I’ll help her build another house!

I don’t use “goo goo ga ga” baby talk (why should I? Kids should learn to speak like grownups, not the other way around) but treat kids like adults with a limited vocabulary. I also get on well with old people. Strange, isn’t it?
