How do we do piggies? NerdMom style.

This little piggy read Kristeva. 

This little piggy read Cixous. 

This little piggy read Derrida. 

This little piggy read Foucault. 

And, this little piggy cried Nietzsche, Nietzsche, Nietzsche all the way home. 

....a Berkeley update will have to wait until we've officially gotten an apt!

Critical Onesies -- Foucault, Durkheim, and Grammatology

I haven't purchased any of these, but was entertained by their existence :-)  Really, I could only commit to the first, I think.

A NerdMom Fantasy

I walk in on my 3 or 4 year old parsing jellybeans or buttons by color (how very Montessori). After they're all separated, this kid pours all the dark ones into one bowl, all the lighter ones into another bowl.

"Look! A binary!"

"Yup, this is true," I cheerfully respond...of course not over-praising so as to encourage taking the idea further. (Because obviously in this fantasy world I am magically always able to draw out a sense of supportedness and curiosity in my offspring.)

Then both bowls get poured onto the work table, joyfully mixed around, and I hear a tiny voice sing-song out, "Dark is light and light is dark! Free play of signifiers dance!"

We then prance around the room together improvising a song about deconstruction.

(Aaaaand scene!)
