By far the greatest part of the time I spent with my two toddlers (5 and 3) is spent repeating the same things, again and again, and trying to find shorcuts for learning (which shorcuts might just not exist, afaik).

Then one day they start to get it (like "fire burns"), but it's still not there for sure until they experiment it deeply multiple times.

The dev in me can't help but see this two little humans as big mighty neural networks who spend their full uptime constantly ingesting tremendous amount of data and being restlessly tuned back by adults and experience :)

And this tuning is of utmost important. People often forget that the tuning is human intervention with specific 'specs'. The little baby machine get's quickly tuned to these, good or bad.
