In the last couple of months Isaac has taken a renewed interest in cooking with me in the kitchen. It occurred to me the other day that it might be possible to enroll him into some kids' cooking schools or something similar, just to see if he likes it. It could end up being something he loves and sticks with and becomes a chef at age 17, or it could be just another thing to try. Who knows.
Anyway, today I ran across a site that sells robotic training kits, and I thought this would be another cool thing for him to try and see if he likes. What a step beyond my old Capsela sets! It's surprising to me sometimes how easily kids can adopt technologies, but on the other hand, they are largely encountering things that just work; we had to go through the growing pains of our first computers, our first VCRs, etc. so we have an inherent memory of these things failing. We also understand the complexity behind them better, which makes me wonder: when you stand on the shoulders of giants, how important is it that you know how the giants got there?
