My kids have one! We use an old wheelbarrow we half buried in the ground.

@kpinreallife.bsky.social only acceptable answer.
I haven't been sleeping because of the Excedrin and I'm just tired.
I've been migraine for like 4 days. πππ
And he hates workbooks. π Which is why I was so shocked he could write. He hasn't wanted to do any kind of letters work with me. And the school only cares about the 3 letters in his name.
We're waiting for the school to approve or disapprove it. It's in a holding moment right now. The school leader is on board, and the state makes exceptions to the law setting the age to 5, but they have to figure out how to do the exception. They haven't done one before. π
As soon as we can afford it, that sounds like a good idea.
He'll be interested in hobbies. He's kind of a tornado mixed with a wrecking ball. You know what he is? The tasmanian devil. ππππ But he doesn't mean to be. He just has no idea where he is in space & he goes 3mil miles/second. πππππ§΅
And he says he wants to be a construction worker when he grows up. I'll see if there's anything he's interested in otherwise. He's also extremely AuDHD, and we're working on calming his brain and body so he can just exist without the constant hyperactivity and distraction. Maybe once that happens 2/
Unfortunately, the schools like that around here are in the city and you have to be a city resident to utilize them. OR the others are private, hella expensive, and don't have to follow an IEP. π
He doesn't have much interest in hobbies right now. He just likes dinosaurs and construction vehiclesπ1/
Pattern recognition makes total sense because he is AuDHD as well. He's so smart it scares me. ππππ§΅
My daughter does virtual school!!! That's what we're hoping for him for kindergarten. Our resident district wants to put him in Pre-K for another year and I'm like HE IS READING. HE DOESN'T NEED TO SIT THROUGH LETTER RECOGNITION AND SOUNDS AGAIN. They don't care.

Well, I just went down a damn rabbit hole. And I need to buy new glasses too. π
We're trying for early entry into kindergarten and he's already shocking me with what he can read without even learning it. Like phone. He read it, then asked me "why does phone start with a P?" π³
I grew up in the time where calling people gay was completely normal and not even something people would blink an eye at. To have lived through that, to people standing up against it and doing better, to being back where we started has been the most heartbreaking whiplash ever.
It's my kid. πππ
Than I can keep up, and they're not teaching him this in Pre-K. He just knows it somehow? I don't know what to do. Help! π

Ok. I need to use the hive mind please.
Does anyone here have experience with extremely intelligent/gifted preschoolers?
Max is 4, he's reading level 1 books, he read a sign in cursive last night, he's able to do basic +/-, and I just found out today HE CAN WRITE? He's advancing faster 1/
You can freeze bread!
Yessssss
This was my thought too! .
Stalked you on the internet.
Like in paper rings?
Not yet. They're not fully formed yet. π
If she does, I think it'll only be The life of a showgirl. That's it. And it'll be very on the nose and very obvious the point she's making with the song.
You know my thoughts on how significant George Michael is. π³π³π³π³
