A little while back I was with my four year-old daughter in a bookstore. I showed her a coloring book with flowers/animals and asked her if she wanted it. She told me it's "not cool".

I flipped through the pages saying look how nice this is...

She said it's "cute but not cool".

I asked her what's cool, several times, but she didn't give me an answer.

Later I told my - you got to find out what's cool and let me know.

My wife came back and said "Spider-Man is cool".

I said: Spider-Man is cool!

But how does she know "cool" and how does she know "Spider-Man"?

I've said it before... that daycare center is a jungle!

If your daughter had teenage brothers, she’d think Assassins’ Creed and Skyrim are cool.

“Cool” is whatever they are interested in at the moment at that age. Everything that isn’t basketball related is not cool according to my 5 year old son. I wouldn’t make anything of it as long as what is “cool” isn’t destructive, which Spiderman and basketball clearly aren’t.
