Earlier this afternoon Allyson and I were working side by side on our computers. I was researching content for a future article for Preschool Online, she was doing what she calls "her work" on the Playhouse Disney website.
We occasionally print out new free coloring pages. She especially loves the Free Playhouse Disney coloring pages. When she finds one she likes and today was the same. She found one Playhouse Disney free coloring pages of Little Einsteins and asked me to print it. What I didn't realize as I was quickly pushing the print icon on the firefox browser tool bar and then accepting print in the pop up box was that she was studing me carefully. Actually I only assume she was studying what I was doing carefully because about 10 minutes later I heard the printer next to me start up.
I looked over a little startled because I wasn't printing anything myself and saw her big blue eyes light up and a clever smile on her face as she told me "I'm printing mom". Low and behold, the page that printed was one of the Playhouse Disney free coloring pages.
I've worked with her on many of the basic computer and internet skills she needs to go on her favorite websites to the point where she barely needs my assistance except to ask "which one says PLAY" on some of her games. I didn't realize how much her brain is soaking in the things I do naturally without thought that I haven't yet explained.
I wonder what else she has learned how to do that I just haven't realized yet. I will wait for the day she logs into my bank account and transfers my checking balance into her savings account online.
