Another Proud Unschooling Moment.....

Andrew and I were playing with his little plastic toys yesterday and he said, "This donkey's name is Jack A---." I discussed with him that perhaps that wasn't the BEST choice in names as that, in a certain context, is not a nice name. He then informed me that it was an OK word and was in fact the name that Andrew Jackson was given by the opposing party and it was then adopted by them as their symbol. Mark was in the other room on the computer and quickly googled it. Sure enough. Apparently, he had "read it in a book." Guess we got our history and social studies in for the day.
