Things Benji Says (polygons)

Benji loves the band They Might Be Giants, who have a number of CDs for children.  One of the songs is named "nonagon" and it's about a nine-sided shape who throws a party for all his multi-sided friends.  Benji loves this song.

A few days ago, we were at a store with six-sided floor tiles.  Benji said: "Look Daddy!  So many hexagons!"

Later, he was looking at an eight-sided doorknob in our apartment, and said:  "Mommy, it's an octagon!"

His spongy brain continues to amaze me.  I wish I could learn information that quickly.
