Took the middle two to the playground at the nearby elementary school. Iris met a little boy where they hit it off right away.
Logan: Do you know what 300 plus 300 equals?
Iris: 600!
Logan: Yeah!
*continue to discuss numbers and math*
Logan: Hey, do you want to be my friend?
Iris: SURE! *runs off to talk to Logan's mom* Hey, guess what? Your son and I are now friends because we are both math geniuses.
Both his mom and I laughed and rejoiced at this. She was so happy to meet a kid who loved numbers as much as hers, something she had not encountered before today. Logan's older brother then started discussing superheroes, and we all got into a conversation about Marvel characters and Star Wars.
I take my kids to the park and they start a math and book club. :)
