Thanks for sharing that story! My daughter is 17 months, and I show her the stars and point out Jupiter and the moon. If we read "stars" in a book, she points up to the sky and says "stars". In the last few months she has become a bit more observant so that when you say "look at the beautiful sunset", or "look at the moon" or Jupiter, she actively looks at it. I look forward to the day I can give her a look through the telescope. I already know she will have some interest in astronomy and science. I don't know yet whether she will have a passion for it, but I'm hoping!
Noel.
