An interesting way of doing things

When you have kids like mine, you have to be adaptable.  We were working on Blake's homework and he was to pick the right word from a grouping of three.  He wasn't very attentive to the task and he got the idea that Percy the train could pick the right word.  Genius! 

This worked rather well.  For awhile.  And then of course, he lost interest.  So I gave him the camera and told him to take a picture of a particular word.  This also kept his interest until the task was over.
