go to some local pond near greenery and catch salamander, frogs and insects with a butterfly net. bring a nature book and read with her about all the stuff you find. i know most grown people would enjoy that, too. you never know what you'll find.



and



and who knows, maybe

This age is the prime age where the kids are like sponges-they'll soak up everything around them. Get her as far away from violent computer games as possible- if it doesn't work-get her one of those creative computer games e.g. 'Barbie Fashion Show' (my little sister has that-not me-just in case you were wondering :P). As others have suggested, Legos are always great, and develop the brain in more ways than you can imagine.

Other than the above, let her try a new hobby- be it playing a musical instrument, drawing or kicking a ball around with her brother. It's far too early for your sister to be watching people killing other people imo, even if its in a game.

you should know how's she doing in school, and what her teachers say, as their feedback could be important.

..good luck- little sisters can be a handful

Try and get her into an in depth hobby like Warhammer 40k, it dovetails nicely with her interest of computers. Start out first with Dawn of War then get her some models and paints, some literature. Promotes creativity, reading, writing and... painting...

We made it, I can't believe we made it!

Unfortunately that path leads to social awkwardness.

For the early years sure, but you'd be surprised how many people get into the hobby once you hit highschool and beyond.

Re: How to make my little sister curious about life?

first Id say..shes 4. You shouldnt get too worried, but at the same time, yeah, take a break from PR when you see he watching you.

Find a good time to quit out[like after a round], stop, look at her and excitedly ask "Hey!! Wanna go play _______!?"

Chances are she will explode and say yes, and then you can go and play a game where yo teach her something other than flanking maneuvers and suppressive fire

But if you keep it up, I wouldnt mind her being my SL when she turns 5 or so. Probably do a lot better than some of us out there :P



In Japan until July 2009, read the blog!

Tell her to RTFM (when she can read) and keep her training, as Okita points says, I wouldn't mind her being SL in a few years either.

Seriously tho, things like lego made me the man I am today.
