Do you wanna go to the moon
With a spoon,
In a cocoon?
Do you wanna have a boon
Do you wanna see a coon?
Who-o-o!
Do you wanna see some dunes
With sand dollar runes?
Do you wanna see some
Upside - down flying loons,
In a lagoon?
Bom-bom-bom!
Driven by baboons and run by balloons?
(one more time)
Oh, yeah!
Moon, spoon,
Cocoon, boon,
Coon, dune,
Dune and rune,
loon, lagoon,
Baboon, balloon
O-o-o-o-o-h, ye-e-e-ah!

Aiden's Date Talk
Each week I take a different kid with me shopping and we take a pause at Tim Hortons for a "date." It was Aiden's turn this week. Our conversation went something like this:
So, what would like to talk about while you eat your Timbits?
So, what would like to talk about while you eat your Timbits?
5 - 4=1 right?
And 5x5=25.
And 3x3=9 because 3+3+3 is 9.
You certainly have gotten those bits of math well.
I don't know this question but I want to know, so...
What is 300 square rooted times 300 times 400?
Well, I don't know that either; you'll have to ask a computer.
Or a phone. Ask your phone. It has a calculator.
Ok.
So we get the answer, and Aiden laughs delightedly.
Why did you want to know that?
Because I really wanted to know that.
What are you going to do now that you know it?
Now I can do divided by questions!
He's still not yet five.
I think my boy likes math.
