Jensen Huang, the CEO of NVIDIA, broke away from President Trump’s schedule and headed straight into one of Beijing’s traditional hutongs to enjoy a bowl of zhajiangmian (noodles with soybean paste) from the famous Fangzhuan workshop.
Amazing: LA schools will eliminate personal devices in K and 1st grade, and limit use in grades 2-5, and give parents more options. I think this will catch on nationally:
Your child’s intense obsession with dinosaurs might actually be a sign of advanced intelligence.
If your little one can easily tell a Brachiosaurus apart from a Diplodocus, they could be showing strong cognitive development. Research from Indiana University and the University of Wisconsin suggests that children who develop a deep, sustained fascination with dinosaurs — often called an “intense interest” — tend to demonstrate above-average intelligence and enhanced learning abilities.
This prehistoric passion does far more than fill their room with toys. It dramatically boosts vocabulary, communication skills, attention span, and information-processing abilities. By mastering a complex topic full of intricate details and categories at a young age, kids build persistence, focus, and sophisticated thinking strategies that serve them well in school and beyond.
Beyond the academic benefits, dinosaur obsession also acts as a powerful confidence booster. Paleontologist Kenneth Lacovara explains that for many children, knowing more about these giant extinct creatures than their parents gives them their first real sense of expertise and authority — a feeling of power that carries over into other areas of life.
Pediatric experts, including occupational therapists from Johns Hopkins, note that this kind of focused play mirrors how adults master their professions. It teaches children how to ask questions, seek answers, and solve problems — essentially turning a childhood hobby into early training for lifelong learning and critical thinking.
Even if the dinosaur phase eventually fades, the mental skills and blueprints for deep focus and complex thinking often remain, giving these young enthusiasts a meaningful developmental edge.
