For g&t, my kid had kid-NaNoWriMo last month, in which she struggled to write 1500 words over the course of the month. This month she randomly just decided she wanted to do it again, but with 2k words. And is still editing her old “novel”. And randomly started learning html on code academy? And is trying to prepare for some dumb musical? So much drive?!
I expect it to dissipate soon, but I do wonder if it will be a part of her?
My daughter did the adult version for years (maybe still does) and was the local chair for a couple years. They would have a 24 hour write-a-thon each year during November and start at a STBX, then drop in to various places for a few hours each including the public library. She would easily get her 150,000 words done each year and most led to published material.

Text from my husband: “I went upstairs to use the bathroom. I was up there for all of a minute, I came down to Older Son wrapping Younger Son in scotch tape and Younger Son completely fine with it. I told them it really worries me that neither of them stopped for a second to consider whether it was a good idea.”
I think without seeing some horrific movies/news, I would find wrapping someone in scotch tape pretty funny too.
“…all of a minute…”
there are a million parenting stories including that sort of timeframe
Our little one just graduated from reception and did very well on her report card. Teacher was very happy with her progress.
Trying to add a bit more fun science stuff for her so got her a Hologram Projector this Christmas for her room so she could replace her stars motif (she has had the glowing stars since she was 3).
You can project the Solar system, Moon, Earth, Milky Way Galaxy etc onto the ceiling. Really great visual aid, and she is fascinated by it.
We are passing by Brussels in January, so have decided to stop off at the Euro Space Center nearby (similar to Kennedy Space Center in Florida) for her to do some of their child activities.
