She could tie her shoes
  and ride her bike
Made scrambled eggs as a tyke

Today's kids do so much more
  before the age of three
Of course, they do it all
  ~ virtually...

Don’t think we even knew what “virtual” meant until we were way older…virtually grown up

One thing for sure: 'Virtue' and 'virtual' have little to do with one another! ~ Smiles, Gershon

It is sad that they slide down the slide and swing on the swings virtually. Not the same if you ask me.
