What Will They Learn

When you take your children on vacation you always wonder what they are going to get out of the journey. Will it be great family memories, new fears, or will the trip be a learning experience for them. After our latest family trip I often wonder just what they will remember the most about the vacation.

Having Hayden spend the week around all of his family members he learned to say every ones names, he learned how to get back to our room from almost any place on the boat, how to play BINGO and most importantly about magnetism. We all know that "in physics magnetism is one of the phenomena by which materials exert attractive or repulsive forces on other materials". Hayden only knows this phenomenon in two cases. Either your Thomas the Trains will stick to the ceiling of the cruise boat or in the case of the ceiling in his bedroom they do not!!!


Hayden was quick to learn the the ceiling above his bed in our room was metal and he loved to hang his trains from there. Since we have been home he has become very frustrated with the fact that they do not stick to everything. He has tried to hang them from everywhere. WE will keep trying though.
