lets face it, she seems to be looking at summat when a question is asked.

I think she is genuinely finding the countries, and whilst it's cute, it's absolutely useless in the real world unless she plans on being some sort of dictator who sits pondering over which country to take over next.

I dont know where some of those countries are, I must admit I am terrible with maps, but I can't see the value in being 'talented' like that at any point in life unless you teach in that area, like geography I guess, though even knowing where places are isn't even important in that subject.

Cute though, I don't think its a con.

[mani]

i dont think its a con either

u can teach kids these things if they pay enough attention

my niece was taught to point at ppl in pics by her grandparents when she was about hte same age

Knowing where places are isn't important if you teach geography?????

She knows more than I do. I got most of them but I have to admit that I do get mixed up with African countries so the first one that threw me was Zimbabwe.

I think it's extremely relevant to know where different countries are in this day and age. Good grief I've known people go on holiday and have no idea where they've been! How mad is that?

If you meet people from different countries I think it's nice to have an idea where those countries are. Wouldn't you as a Brit feel a bit miffed if you went on holiday to the far east and a Chinese or Japanese person thought England was part of Canada?

[panther]

I think its rather clever....most kids at 10 dont know where half the countries are

[jaysay]

There are two things in life I hate thats Bad Bear and cheeky smart little kids
