Baby’s First Internet: Best Nursery Rhyme Ever
There are a lot of things that, as adults, we’ll one day have to explain to our children. Some of these things, like where babies come from, are completely unanswerable. Something to do with magic and storks. Others, like what is the internet, totally are. And this adorable illustrated book by Kevin Fanning and Kean Soo, Baby’s First Internet, will help you teach your little chill’ens the ways of the interwebs with a playful nursery rhyme.
Do not stop to think or edit.
You must be the first who said it.
You heard a brand-new band? What luck!
You’ll be the first to say they suck.
In order to increase renown,
add “bacon” to most any noun.
It’s not your job to right a wrong,
just mark it FAIL and move along.
Rather than felicitations,
send your friend an application.
To be an expert’s no great tax:
Write common sense and call it “hacks.”
Your friends won’t like it, on the real,
but you must Flickr every meal.
In disagreements, all your readers
must be branded Nazi leaders.
It doesn’t matter what you say,
just publish it twelve times per day.
Damn, they’ve got us figured out Tim.
You can read the guide and check out the drawings in their entirety over on The Morning News. Do those illustrations feel familiar? They should. You might know Kean Soo from The Secret Friend Society.
<3 the poem, no, I mean nursery rhyme.
