He is doing SCAT. He is just playing in it with no directions. (I wonder if there is a guide book.) He made a simple animation. He made a dot character and it slid over to hit a box and made a word bubble appear that said happy birthday. I loved that.

He knows how to work hard to learn something. But I think studying for a test is different. right? Do you think he doesn't need this experience if he is challenged and ambitious in other ways?

We have a marble run type toy with flexible tube marble runs on. I said I just can't do it. Well, he went back to it another day and figured it out. It was for 8 yr old but it was very tricky.
