Secret code cracked by 40" wunderkind
Yesterday I was visiting a blog of a wonderful mom(pw protected) who I deeply admire. Her beautiful daughter and Piper are about the same age, but since she lives in NYC her daughter attends full day Kindergarten(sigh)...I saw that a code breaking exercise had been given to her daughter at school and I thought Piper might enjoy one. I told Miss P about the secret code, and her eyes lit up "just like the Secret Seven Mummy?!"
REDEEM THIS PIECE OF PAPER TO RECEIVE ONE COOKIE
REDEEM THIS PIECE OF PAPER TO RECEIVE ONE COOKIE(guess I should have read the fine print before I printed these out)
The concept was absorbed in less than 10 seconds and she blew through two worksheets in under 5 minutes! She needed help reading part of the message but was thrilled to pieces with the idea of the decoding secret meassages part. 
I need an ENTIRE workbook of secret codes! Anyone know of a good resource? I loved this exercise as much as Piper did!

Sigh...I hear ya, my friend...too quick, too clever, easily bored...makes for two exhuasted mommies!!
Someone has it. I want to say Usborne. Ask at Bones and Noodles.
Hey not all NYC schools have full day kindergarten!!!! If we don't get a full day UPK class for September I am not sending her. E is doing amazing at her little daycare.
Smart girl to break the cookie code.
Very cool.
Way to go Piper
That is so cool. Piper is a whiz with that. Looks like fun. :)
