My son gets mad when he hears me tell someone that he is four.
“I’m not four! I’m four and a half.”
But I’m not one to be outdone.
“Actually you are four and two-thirds.”
“Is that more than four and a half?”
“Yep.”
“I’m not four and a half! I’m four and two-thirds.”
“Soon,” I told him, “You will turn four and three-quarters.”
I’m going to see how far I can push this.
Maybe my son will become the first preschooler to be able to divide into 365ths….

I love that, sneaking math into the lives of our children is even better than sneaking in extra vegatables, love it :0
Hahaha! Great analogy!
