Great article. I'm raising my grade school daughter on my own and I struggle to raise her to be adventurous and curious, and it seems to be working okay. She's been bugging me to "program a robotic dog" -- Mindstorm time?
Anyway, I'm disappointed one of the most interesting anecdotes was saved for the end. I'd like to hear more about how his mother grew her deceased husband's wholesale business and then sold it to a larger firm.
I really think that you should buy your daughter Lego Mindstorms. It changed me and taught me how to actually think. For a child seeing what's in your head flipping over on the ground is pure magic.
