The first week had hits and misses — I didn't always have her attention, and sometimes she'd just want to dump things out of the suitcase as the activity — but I was patient and we tried again later. Now a week into it, it's become a constant in our day.
When we walk into the living room and I'm not sure what to do with her next, I point to the map. I ask her if she remembers anything about the animals we talked about yesterday (penguins, elephants, etc.), or to point to a continent. There are activity booklets that we've only just scratched the surface of, and they all fit within the theme.
The service is perfect for me because teaching isn't something that necessarily comes naturally to me. I was putting in the effort before picking virtual classes and doing my best to educate, but it was ad hoc. And since I second-guessed my efforts — Is this educational? Is this what we should be doing? — the box silences those negative voices and enables me to be an even better teacher than I was before.
