Tiny Tots at the Computer


Payton and Taylor love to play on Grandma's computer all the time!!

So I just now got this picture off my camera but it was taken a couple of months ago, Payton (then 15 months) and Taylor (who was 3 in April) were playing on the computer. Payton picked up the mouse, held it to her ear and said, "Hello? Hello?"

Pretty cute!!

But Taylor wins the prize for computer ingenuity when she was busily playing an ABC game at the Fisher Price site. The child hits "any" key and letter by letter, they pop up on the screen, nice and big and you hear the name of the letter spoken. Taylor was happily going through the alphabet when she hit several keys at once and "froze" my screen. It seemed that no matter which key she tried nothing would work. I was amused as I watched her try to figure this out. Finally, she looked up at me and said, "Grandma, do you have any batteries?"

Priceless!!!!

Digital cameras are the BEST!! You can snap snap snap away and find such jewels. Kids are also sooo wonderful and ingenious. Thanks for sharing!!

Your granddaughters are great! I love how much smarter each successive generation becomes! My oldest was the same as Taylor. I had one of the old Atari computers (1986), and he turned it on and off and opened and used his programs all by himself.

Thank you for the glimpse at your great family!

Wow, those are some smart kids! You know they got that from their Dad:) That's so funny you just posted this because I finally caught up on my "Taylor Talk" book and I wrote this same thing last night!

I love all the dialogs you share with what your grandkids say. They are too smart for their own good - I love the things kids say... it always shows more wisdom than we give them credit for. Very cute!

What cute stories! My mom loves being a gradma, too. She says it is great because no matter how crazy things get, eventually, everyone goes home.
