- shostack 11y agoAnd your daughter is only 8? Damn, nice job on the parenting. Might I ask what you've done as a parent to help get her to the point where she's asking these sorts of questions?
- rvijapurapu 11y agoEarly on I did show her how to use the Google Now to ask questions - like how far is the Moon & like. That's about all the parenting I have done in this regard. She has been watching way too many How Stuff Works videos lately - I want to see if that spills over into her being more curious about things.
- shostack 11y agoVery cool. Have you by any chance considered the Amazon Echo or teaching her how to use Wolfram Alpha?
- rvijapurapu 11y agoI don't own the Echo, might be something I would consider buying at some point. I do have access to WolframAlpha but haven't yet taught her how to use it - maybe it's a bit early for her, I'll give it a go.
