I am on aligner 11/15, so I am almost done with Invisalign. And before anyone thinks they can do this at home, there are two points to consider. Invisalign needs attachments to help move your teeth along. Just this Monday, my dentist had to redo the attachment on #10. Also, if your teeth need a little more room, your dentist will sand your teeth down as well. Attachments are temporary, but sanding your teeth down is permanent!
My 17 month old plays with several numbers and letters apps on my Surface. If the app hangs even slightly, she taps over and over until the app reacts again. I find it interesting that even she does the rapid fire tapping as well.
I have a similar aged lad who uses his pad just like all the other much older kids do. Just want to say what an amazing thing it is to see kids so young so easily and comprehensively using these touch screen devices.
As an example, he can search YouTube for The Number Song, which has already taught him to count to 100. Alphabet 90% reliably correct too, not to mention shapes and colours. He has been using pads since he was about 15-16 months, something like that, he is now 2 years 3 months, and I still find it incredible. Way ahead of my other kids.
In an ideal world, I would love for every child to get one of these, plus an internet connection, free from what ever education department, when the hit, say, 18 months. Yeah, I know.....
What I don't know though is whether its a good thing or a bad thing? To this 40yo Dad, something seems sad about seeing him there, on the sofa, with his face lit up by his "Samsung". But equally, it seems like a modern miracle. Even though he still like books,, actual toys, running about in the garden, pulling the cat's tail, giving his food to the scrounging dogs, it still feels like he is being robbed of something. I suppose thats my age or generation, or something stupid.
As for the pad hanging, he now has patience, and simply waits. He used to tap away, then hold the pad out for one of us to fix it, but now he just waits. If he gets no response after a while, he restarts the pad.
Yeah! I am in the nasty habit of highlighting parts of the text which I'm reading, and it keeps showing me the share widget - very frustrating. I couldn't figure out why the share widget contains "Evernote and Email" options. Sounds like the author got hold of a template, and hasn't changed it since.
