It’s a known fact that my son loves toys, especially trains and cars. I have written about some of his favorite toys in the past, so for this week’s Mommy Moments’ theme, I’ll focus on my son’s love for gadgets.

Because my son is a curious lot, he is interested in many things, and gadgets are one of them. It used to be just my cell phone. He would borrow my cell phone to take pictures, to delete a game, to add a folder, and to add new contacts to my phone book.

He didn’t stop with my cell phone, however, because soon he started using our desktop and later on our laptop. When his Dad bought an iPod Touch, that became his newest preoccupation. He would play Plants vs. Zombies there and watch videos in YouTube.

Now, that iPod is in a repair shop and currently waiting replacement. Good thing it’s still under warranty! Is my son to be blamed for this? Perhaps. If there’s one thing I’m sure of it’s that my son will grow up to be a techie, so unlike me. Come to think of it, exposing our kids to gadgets early has its advantages, too.
