Blatant "Boast" - Impressed by DD yr1

I know it is not the done thing, but I thought if not disguised it would be OK.

My DD 5 yrs old has mastered her times tables. Randomly answers any question in the range between 0x0 to 11 x 10.

Understands what they mean, and applies appropriately.

I am very proud of her. Also proud of my other DD 7 yr3 who helped her learn them.

Wow. Great.

That's really great and well done to her big sis too! It will stand your DD2 in good stead through her years at school.

Brilliant! I think it is fine to be proud :)

Thanks for the positive responses. I had braced myself for something else.

Just got my y1 DD a lovely usborne times tables book that she insisting on having as her 'story' tonight. Hopefully she'll remain interested.

That's amazing, not surprised you're proud of her.

wish my DS aged 8 would show any interest in times tables
