US History for a Five-Year-Old

I know Lily's probably too young to understand most of it, but I'm looking forward to breaking the "no TV at night during the school week" rule tonight and watching some of the inauguration coverage with her. I was excited the other day when some channel flashed a picture of the Obama family on TV, previewing their upcoming coverage. Without the "P" word having even been uttered during the preview, Lily took one look and said, "That's the president!"

That's my girl.

More to follow.

P.S. Thanks to Erica at Moms are Talking About for her teachable moments blog today. http://bomoms.boston.com/post/momsaretalkingabout/inauguration_lessons.html I'm looking forward to read about what lessons you pull from today as well.
