Is our children learning?

Filed under: — Nat @ 7:23 pm

Laura and I are at the hockey game, and during a TV timeout a couple minutes ago they do a little ‘Iceburgh Goes To School’ segment where the team mascot goes to a local elementary school with a cameraman in tow and asks the various adorable moppets questions.

Okay, fine, cute enough.

So the first question is “Where do penguins live?”

Sure, that makes sense, the team mascot’s a huge freakish cartoon penguin.

But then EVERY SINGLE KID says “up north where it’s cold!” or “the north pole!”

Not one knows the answer.

So I ask you: is our children learning?
