Default Start them young

Now that the weather is warming up, I have started playing a game with my 3yr old granddaughter when we are out driving. "Count the motorcycles." I hope that making her aware now will get her into the practice of 'seeing motorcycles'. Her head is on a swivel when we are out and she tries to raise up in her car seat to see farther down the road. "Bampa! Motocyco!"

Besides motorcycles, I also tell kids to count bicycles.
