    My dd LOVES my mom's house because she still uses bars of soap. I just don't like cleaning the scum they leave behind, but they sure are cheaper!

      I had a daycare child that had never seen an apple before. She only ever had pre sliced packaged fruit.

      also, my daughter asked me what VHS was....and "what is the 80s?"

        On a serious side, I've never had a bar of soap here either...I wonder if any of my DCK's would know what it is... :confused:

        I do have one little one who when washing hands always waves their hands under my paper towel roll...then waits....then repeats....

        I always have to remind them the paper towel isn't automatic....you have to get some yourself. ::

        Oh, my.

          On the other side of the story, I was shocked at something my 3 year old recognized today. We have a new book, and on each page, they ask what Loonette forgot, then show a picture. One of them was a picture of an old fashioned gramaphone, the kind you wind and it has a big bell shaped speaker. DCG never even hesitated-she looked at the picture and said music. I have no idea how she knew that represented music.

            About 12 yrs ago I was facilitating play group at my job and I used a real lp record ...not really thinking about it. The kids all go, "What's that?". I say, "Ahhhhhhh...hmmmmm It's a big CD!"

              I saw a vintage FP toy camera at a thrift store and kept wondering if I should get it. It is a replica of those instamatics with the cube flash that went around from the 70's. It was 25 cents. I thought they would like it. They love it and have no trouble with it being a camera. I was so surprised!
