Three-year-old Genius

I was playing a game with my kids this morning. I would hold up shape flash cards and then call on one of them to tell me what shape it was.

Beaner blew me away with being the only one who knew what a trapezoid was.

I held up a card and called on Bug, "Octagon" she said. Nope.

I moved on to Bud, "circle" he said. Nope.

"It's on the tip of my tongue," said Bug.

After about thirty more seconds of guessing Bear pipes up, "It's an oval". Sure enough that was it.

I was laughing so hard. My three year old schooled my fourth grader. She was a bit embarrassed. I think Bear might be a genius, and if not he sure is cute.
