Haha, my mom was an accountant and I would love playing with the calculator that would dispense the paper. Would try and draw something with numbers.
My kid is 6 and he only gets to watch videos I downloaded from YouTube or movies that I downloaded from the places and put into a playlist on VLC. I do give him free reign on Spotify with the swear words removed.
As for bicycles, we live in Taipei and it’s way too dangerous to ride on the sidewalk, let alone the street. So we have to ride in the park.
I ended up paying someone to teach my kid after many failed attempts to teach on my own. After 1 class he was able to ride and after the second class he was proficient. I think the reason was my kid felt comfortable around me and if he is pushed to his limits, we don’t push him harder and he knows that. With a teacher, he just had to listen and follow the directions and take bigger risks.
Bike lessons actually makes good sense. My son has a habit of not wanting to learn from me as well (though he has turned around a little since starting first grade). Gonna look into that this spring. Thanks!
