As part of our world geography lessons we just began a Robinson projection map puzzle. Johann is already learning a lot and Eric and I are realizing how little we learned in school! The land pieces are cut out around all the countries. In the case of the United States, most of the states are separate pieces. We reviewed with Johann and pointed out the places we had already shown him on our other world map. Johann assembled the United States all by himself. Earlier today Eric and Johann were working on the puzzle. Then Johann bolted to where I was to tell me,
“MOMMY!!!!!! We put together Taiwan! It looks like a pickle and it has a kind of a crescent shape! So when you look at the puzzle and see a pickle in the South China Sea, you’ll know it’s where you were born!”
Johann has such a fun and unique way of putting things! It’s moments like this, or times like when I go to scoop flour out of the container and find his handprint on the flour’s surface, that I sometimes wish I could hold onto forever.
