Thanks renigade3

Not sure about more sophisticated though. I think sophisticated and simple are words used too often by social climbers who wish to plant their own self portraits as flags at the summits of their lacking egos. If you had fun then that's all that matters!!

Thanks word.smith

David Suchet, the English actor who plays Poirot in these ITV productions, has certainly made the character his own, just as Joan Jickson did for Miss Marple.

Thanks avant-garde

I wish you every success. All of life should be fun shouldn't it, with a smile on someone's face the true indicator of success and achievement.

Yes, these are some of the moments

your children will remember years from now. 

Funny, but I never knew that Hercule Poirot was Belgian.  You live and you learn.

We ate Ding Dongs and drank non-alcoholic sparkling grape

juice.  Family tradition.  Don't ask how it started...  Yours sounds much more sophisticated...lol

Learning, I think, should be fun. It becomes laborious when it is forced. I hope that I can teach my children as easily as you describe.
