proto-walking

Fun things to do with babies, #5924: Sing the opening of "Also Sprach Zarathustra" when they first manage to stand up unsupported. I suspect this kid's going to walk much sooner than his brothers did.

Tangentially, I saw 2001 for the second time a few weeks back, over twenty years after my first viewing. Treating it as a visual experience rather than a story made it work much better for me; I understand better now why it's considered a great movie.

Congratulations! Speaking of things to do with babies, I have just bought my sister Experimenting with Babies for those dull moments with an infant.

Nifty! Knowing a bit of "here's what cognitive and motor skills develop when, and here's what to look for" definitely helped me on those days when this Gary Larson cartoon sounded like a good idea.
