Never Too Young To Learn Calculus

My daughter loves numbers and letters. She runs around the house counting from 1 to 10 and singing her ABCs. Recently (last month when she was 17 months old), my daughter was apparently bored with Elmo, the Teletubbies, and her learning DVDs (Baby Einstein and Baby Genius). I found her sitting in the dining room reading a Calculus book. What next?
