New Isaiah photos

June 6, 2008

Isaiah is very proud of having his own laptop. (I picked up an OLPC for him off a fellow Googler who was done playing with it). Tonight he sat in my lap while I helped him open it up. He turned it on, and smiled when it chimed. He then picked it up and walked over to the black rocker, put it down, and sat by himself pinging away on the keyboard.

Photos, photos, photos. Isaiah is loving getting wet in the sprinklers and the pool (as well as the Long Island Sound). As happy parents we take occasional bursts of photos, so enjoy these documenting his laptop and recent sprinkler / pool fun.

    Abe, When I told Tynne about Isa's laptop she mentioned that current guidelines suggest that younguns are supposed to be shielded from all TV, computer and other electronic screen etc use until age (5?). Latest recommendations etc for brain development. What do you think? Mom
  • I think it's silly for people to think they know the answer to this. We haven't had these items long enough to measure impacts. Even if they are detrimental in some ways, they must be beneficial in others. I general I distrust blanket prognostications such as these without very clear reasons.

    Most of all I have faith in the brain developing properly no matter what the heck happens. Different doesn't mean bad. And maybe our brains should get wired differently in this new world we live in.
