Our grandson Jake is still at that wonderful age when working on an activity book is an adventure not "more homework" as big brother Tim describes it. After supper, I asked Jake if he had been working in the sticker and puzzle workbook he had gotten for his 6th birthday a couple of days ago. He said he had forgotten but he knew where it was.
He rushed to get it while I cleared a spot on the kitchen table for us to work. Very methodically, Jake got the book as well as some crayons and a pencil with a large eraser. He proceeded to show me the pages he had worked on and the first page that hadn't been. It was a math page where 1 truck + 1 truck = 2 trucks. I don't know what Kindergarten math grade level is but I do know that Jake didn't take the page as a insult or as an impossible task. It was just a fun activity to do with Grandpa. And Grandpa agreed.
