The Dark Side of Christmas
I came up with a new way to show my son which things he can’t touch.
I made some modifications to my Kid Alert Visual Warning Sign. Cowabunga Dude.
A picture is worth 35 tweets.
These days most kids can’t picture what 1,000 words looks like. We now see text in units of tweet.
In school I was always taught to show your math. So here it is.
1 picture = 1000 words
The average word = 5 letters/characters
1000 words x 5 = 5000 characters
1 Tweet = 140 characters
5000 characters / 140 = 35.7
I rounded down to account for spaces.
This is pretty simple math, but it should be noted that I had to have a “Beautiful Mind” moment to get it right. And even now I’m second guessing myself.
