We were learning about different kinds of books. I told about atlas, thesaurus, and encyclopedia. One boy asked what an encyclopedia is. I said if you want to find out about bears you can look in an encyclopedia. He said he would just look on the Internet.
I told him when I was little I had a computer, but there was no such thing as the Internet.
He replied, "What good is a computer without the Internet?"
He was serious. I thought it was funny because young children don't know the world without the Internet.
