60 Questions

Posted by Heather on August 1, 2008 at 9:32 AM

That's how many she asked this morning in the car ride to school, which lasted 12 minutes. 5 questions per minute seems to be a pretty consistent rate for Bobbin. And so, it begs some calculating.

Starting at around 7am when she wakes up until about 8pm when she goes to bed, subtract 2 hours (optimistic) for a nap, and that's 11 hours of questions at 5 questions per minute which equates to 3,300 questions per day. Since I'm not with her during school hours I don't really know if she actually sustains that rate. I suspect not given the number of other distractions and activities and the fact that there are a bunch of other kids in the class amongst whom the teacher must divide her attention. But that leaves about 4 hours per day when we're together, and that roughly comes out to about 1,200 questions that I'm answering each day.

That feels about right :-)
