Babies Are Smart?!

So it seems. Smarter than we normally think, to be precise. And considering the questions that toddlers ask, I'd have to say the younguns do, indeed, have more intellectual curiosity than their adult counterparts.

I don't know how well intelligence bodes for babies, though. Our consideration of them as merely dumb miniature people is the best thing they've got going for them. That's why I play with them when they're around. Without that, they're simply pooping machines....
