Yes! I didn't know any of this either until we studied Egypt! AND we love to teach others. Case in point: when Grandma Sandy was here recently, she joined us in learning how to write in hieroglyphics! It is so much fun to learn alongside Toby and his favorite subject is history, which happens to be mine as well! We had fun today building Cheop's pyramid (which is the one you always see in pictures). It is by far the biggest, so therefore when we built a smaller version today, Toby asked if we could please build Cheop's. ugh! But, hey, if Lego's can teach history than I'm all for it! Playing and learning: how fun!!!

What do you mean you can't learn by playing?!

Way to go, Toby! And way to go, Mom! I think that's one of the best ways to reinforce what they are learning. I love seeing what the girls are learning come out in their play!
ReplyDeleteI don't think we ever studied Egypt ~ wish we would have though!! Those pyramids always have fascinated me!! Good job, Toby!
