My 5 year old is convinced that there are only two places in the world...China and Jacksonville, Florida?


My 5 year old is convinced that there are only two places in the world...China and Jacksonville, Florida?
He'll be starting school this year so should I just let his teacher explain it to him? Since I'm his dad, I really just want to hang out with him and eat donuts, you know?

if he were mine, i would show him a globe. show him where china is, where jax is and explain that there are alot of cities in between..

Buy one those kids maps and show him where Jacksonville Florida is and then show him where China is and then show him other places in relation to them. Or you could buy a kid's globe and try that also, or take him somewhere that has one, like a science museum or children's museum. Young kids like that are very stubborn and sometimes won't believe you until they see it visually. Are you going on a trip out of town this summer? That would help him as well, even if it's a day trip to a nearby town.

Just do like most dad's and let him learn everything in the school yard. You could teach him how to drink and shotgun a beer before he is 7

Draw a map of earth with crullers. Jelly-filled make great volcanoes.

Your 5 year old could well be right. You two just hang out with the donuts. I wish I could hang out with you. Sounds like you both have great fun. Enjoy every second of your 5 year old's company. Children grow up too fast these days. God bless you both.

Sure, that should be an easy one for the teacher to cover after she's done explaining how her "dad" is actually a transvestite, and not a man with abnormally soft skin and 36C's.

He needs to be learning how to lift skirts for peeks and such...leave the map crap to a trained professional.

There are plenty of disappointments out there in the world.... hang & eat donuts ... let the Teacher be the Heavy.
