Dynamo Short Wave Radio

Alec found my emergency radio. He asked me how it works. I told him it needed batteries. He wanted to know what type. I told him AA. He wanted to know what double a batteries were. I told him the type that are used in the Wii remotes. He got the spare batteries right away. Always put things in ways others can relate to.
We started to play around with the switches and knobs til we found a channel that we could hear something. I don't know what language it was but he was excited to hear it work. He started to move the knob and found a baseball game. My wife told him that was how people would find out about the game by listening to the radio. Alec decided to share his new knowledge with his brother Kaleb. "This is how they watched baseball movies!" We relate the unknown with what we know.
