May I respond to the 'won't remember it'?
MY DS, now age 19 is a sophmore at UW Madison majoring in Civil Engineering. What can he remember from one of his youngest trips? (Age 2 yrs, 4 mos). We went to Royal Gorge in Colorado. He can vividly remember being held by my dad out in the middle of the bridge and looking through the slats/grid to the river WAY below. He can remember everything about it - even more so than I can!!! Think that did not have an impact on him choosing engineering as a degree?
