And to be embarrassed about it?
He's 2.5. I picked him up from nursery yesterday and they commented onhow good his shape recognition is - he can name triangles, squares, rectangles etc. As we left his keyworker told me to keep up the good work . Thing is, the only reason he can do that is because he watches too much Team Umizoomi where they have to solve puzzles with shapes.
Similarly there are loads of buildings/ vehicles/ animals etc that he only recognises because he's seen them on TV. He quite often comes out with something random - like pointing out a diving bell in a book - and I realise he's picked it up from fecking Paw Patrol or something.
I mean, it's good that he's learning things, but I feel like I should be teaching him more and less of his general knowledge should come from TV!

To feel like TV teaches DS more than I do?
