Katherine at 5 and 1/2, now reads to Bingster brother, Karl

Dear Ted, here is Katharine, now age 5-1/2, reading Bing Get Dressed to her 1-1/2-year-old brother, Karl. He's definitely the second Bingster in the family! If you look carefully, you can see the white fingertips on both kids, as they struggle to decide who should hold the book. I think it's amusing that Karl is winning the battle.

I can't imagine raising toddlers without Bing. Just this morning, when Katharine was trying to glue a ribbon on an art project and was upset that she got too much glue, my husband and I both quoted, "Don't worry Bing, it's no big thing, we'll just cover it all with SPARKLES!" Worked like a charm.
