the compass: which way?


So this weekend we made a stop at the Stones River Park Station.  Connor loves visiting there and especially visiting the gift shop.  While we were there he fell in love with a small compass.  I thought it would be a good thing for him to learn to use so I bought it for him.  As we walked out I could hear him muttering to himself.  When I asked him what was wrong he replied, " This thing doesn't work!  It doesn't point which way I'm going.  I was ripped off!"  After I finished laughing I tried to explain that it pointed north, not the direction he was walking but he was having nothing to do with that explanation.  Luckily Tim was able to get through to Connor about how a compass works. :)
