Brain box

I always knew one of my nieces was pretty bright and last night we found out what *she* decided to do for her end of year project. They could choose any topic to present to the class and hers was cellular biology and more specifically the difference between animal and plant tissue.

She’s SEVEN.

We were blown away. I must admit I don’t really know what 7 year olds know and it’s so long ago that I can’t remember what I knew then but I’m sure it wasn’t the complexities of single and double cell membranes! The Mister and I wondered on the way home what we would have assumed a 7 year old would do a project on:

• Dinosaurs
• Quilt-making
• What birds and animals are on our money?
• Gymkhana
• Shortland Street
• Bones in the human body
• What lives in Antarctica?
• Who found New Zealand?
