Question: How do you teach your kids left from right?
My answer: I drive. My wife sits on the front passenger seat. My kids sit behind. So I tell them: "To know left from right, always remember that Mommy is always right."
How about you? How do you teach your kids left from right?
New Gallery. Please visit my latest gallery, Little Red Riding Hood. It's a new way to present photos—like a book, a literary classic. Comments are welcome.
If you'd like to do a photo session based on your kid's favorite story (and live in or near Seattle), let me know by sending me an email. It'll be fun.

I have a twin sister. We both have one dimple, on opposite sides of our face. Me? I was always "right". Heh.

I love that you tell them Mommy is always right!
I always used to tell the right hand is hte one they ate with the hand that you eat with. (strangely they would happily use either had to write with)
