I spent last summer teaching my grandkids this. Will they remember it in years to come? You bet they will. It came with a catchy tune, and they had to interact to learn it.

Will they use it? Meh... Maybe the older one will use parts of the greek alphabet as an engineer. Maybe the middle one will use greek as a doctor. The little girl? No bets there, but I'm fairly sure she will remember the catchy tune and words, at 4 she knows all the words to 'Do you want to build a snow-man?'.

Of course, me finding the parody of "Do you want to build a meth lab" isn't helping my relationship with my own daugher (her mom).

They won’t remember it if they don’t use it. Use it or lose it, oldest rule of education, and 100% true.

So. The idea of getting the grandkids a Breaking Bad Leggo Kit for Christmas might not go over too well?
