Danny's Trivia


Danny was watching Gretchen, Paul and Molly play Phase 10. Then out of the blue he says:

"Gretchen.....What kind of bear builds a nest?"

Gretchen: Is this a joke?

Danny: No

Gretchen: Ummmmm, a Koala Bear?

Danny: No

Paul: A polar bear?

Danny: No

Molly: A grizzly bear?

Danny: No

Gretchen: What kind?

Danny: a sun bear. Google it.

So we did. It is quite an interesting bear. I asked him how he knows it builds nests and he said to google "sun bear nests" and when we did we saw a rare video of a sun bear building a nest up in a tree.

I asked him where he learned this and he said, "from my book." Matt and Emily gave him an Animal Encyclopedia a few years ago and he must have been reading it the other day. Sometimes he really surprises me.

Love how he's always so random with these things. That kid is way smarter than any of us give him credit for! :)
