Ditto.

We "taught" logarithms to our 4 year old during dinner one night. It was more naming the concept and challenging his thinking on a concept he brought up. I place this more in the category of "feeding the monster" or "fanning the flames" than "hot housing."

In the same way, we discuss the books we read together. Am I hot housing reading comprehension by, say, putting a name to "foreshadowing"? The boundaries are often fuzzy.
