Toddler Math, or Let’s Play in the Snow
The walk from our apartment to preschool is five blocks. A healthy adult can make this walk in five minutes, or perhaps six if one observes all traffic signals.

Short legs plus an affinity for asking questions about each truck, bird and sound makes for a chilly journey in winter weather. So usually we take the stroller to school. And let’s be honest: this is for the boy’s mother’s comfort. He’s happy to play in the cold.
