Glad I Bought Those Screen Protectors

I was teaching my Sunday English class, when I looked to the corner of the room and discovered that the younger sister of one of my students had found the DS in my backpack. I usually leave it in sleep mode so she didn’t have to turn it on or select a game, but I am still impressed that she managed to get the stylus out and start playing a game by herself. She had just turned 2 years old the day before.

She had started up a game of Brain Training and was having blast writing on my new DS lite. It was so cute I didn’t have the heart to tell her to stop. I took a picture and as I did I noticed that she was actually getting some of the math problems right. Of course this is just random coincidence that occasionally her scribbles look like numbers, but it was still pretty incredible to watch. If you look closely in the picture, you can see the green check mark, which indicates that she got the previous question right.

I love the look of concentration as she plays DS just like her older siblings. This could be a future pro-gamer in the making. Or maybe it is just a toddler who found a very pretty, shiny thing.
