    So interesting.

    Julia has just started to say things to me like "I wish we could buy that" or "Can we get this?" when she sees commercials or when we're reading a magazine or shopping in the store.

    I don't know that she could understand this stuff right now, (although pbs.org is her home page...they've got great educational games based on their tv shows there) but I think I'll look at it with her. Heck, I may even use it with my 8th graders...they are the ones who fall victim the most!
