Toddlers: 24 Months+

I didn't know my computer could do this...

today DS and I were playing a game on Sesame Street.com and I guess when you hit ctrl, alt, left arrow your entire screen turns 90 degrees. I freaked out and thought he had broken my computer.

no worries. I googled it and apparently this has happened to many people. just hit crtl, alt, up arrow and it is fixed.

who knew

 

Re: I didn't know my computer could do this...

  • Who knew is right! Dd's only computer trick is popping off the keys :)
  • Loading the player...
  • I thought I was the only one!!! DS used to do this to our laptop when he was a baby. Like 10-11 months old. He would bang away on the keys, flip the screen sideways or upside down, and I had no idea how to fix it!! I finally figured it out. Now if I could only figure out how he turned the Closed-Captioning to Spanish on the TV in our bedroom......
  • Interesting, I wonder how many of us tried it after reading your post - am I the only one?!? Stick out tongue

    But it did not work on my laptop.

    DD changed our answering machine to Spanish when she was very young, too. We couldn't find the manual, so it took a looooong time to change it.

    ::raises hand::  

    I tried it, and it didn't work on my laptop.

    Isn't it amazing what kids can do without even trying!
