Human Compass

Z (4) sat down on the kitchen floor a few minutes ago, with his legs sitting out straight. He asked, "Mom, is this way North?"

"Why, yes, Z, it is North!"

"Then this is South, right?" as he spun around 180 degrees.

"Very good, Z!" I cheered.

"And this way is West." He was right again!

"And this way is East!"

"That's really good, Z. How did yo know that?" I questioned.

"My really smart brain just told me."

And there you have it.
