Richard Thompson's Cul de Sac, is a comic strip about the life of a pre-school girl named Alice Otterloop. It is a light-hearted comic strip centered around a four-year old girl and her suburban life experiences on a cul-de-sac with her friends Beni and Dill, older brother Petey and her classmates at Blisshaven Academy pre-school. Alice describes her father's car as a "Honda-Tonka Cuisinart" and talks to the class guinea pig, Mr. Danders. She has the typical older brother who plays jokes on her, and she contemplates ways to keep the scary clown from jumping out of the jack-in-the-box with friends.

My cousin taught me to count to hundred by counting to 10 ten times. It worked!
Wanna know how I can count to a thousand??

Does anyone know this character’s name. His is the only name I haven’t nailed down.

If their parents simply had these kids watching Sesame Street, they’d know how to count to 10 ‘cause they’d have memorized the songs.
I’m in my forties, and to this day whenever I count to 12 I think of ladybugs and the Ladybug Picnic…
Actually, modern kids probably know that it’s easier to count to 10 in binary: “1, 10, ready or not here I come!”

I was brought up on Sesame Street while still in utero. (Seriously, it started being broadcast while Mom was pregnant with me.) I know I was the only child in my kindergarten class who read (much to the annoyance of my teacher, since I kept getting the “read to me” requests!), but I’m not sure how quickly I picked up numbers. Math was not my forte, right from the beginning, and I think the “New Math” didn’t help that tendency. :)

turtleman44, his name is Marcus DeMarco.
Speaking of brain-power and Zappa, somebody told me years ago that the musicians with the highest IQs are JS Bach and Frank Zappa. I’m happy to believe it.

I don’t remember how early I learned 1-10, but I know in kindergarten I was slow in getting my gold star for knowing 1-100. When I DID figure it out, I was INFURIATED that they hadn’t explained the pattern of simply repeating the 1-9 pattern for every new set. I thought I had to learn it by rote.

Marcus kinda looks like pics of Zappa in his early years…
(I still think he looks like an Arnold…)
