The "difficulty" of having a smart child

While not meaning to sound like a pushy parent, I must say that Rona is smart.
This is really good, because, well, it is.

But it is also hard. It is hard to keep her engaged with things, and most things for her age she gets bored with easily (as she can do them easily) and things for older kids are too hard.

So I spend hours each week trying to work out how to do new things that are developmentally appropriate but also stretching her. Thank goodness for Pinterest and teaching blogs such as No Time for Flashcards and 1+1+1=1
