Can you find the Number 5?

Our friend gave us a secondhand baby toy.  It's a learning tree toy, and it has a number pad laid out like hopscotch.

The toy talks and everything.  Michael was sitting up, teetering, and playing with the toy.  I was keeping an eye on him, but pretty much letting him do his own thing.  I'm a firm believer that babies need to be given some space to explore the world around them, as long as it's a safe environment.

So, the toy asks him "can you find the number 5?"  Well, he's definitely too young to understand numbers, but at that moment, he wobbles, teeters, and pitches himself face first into the toy.  SPLAT!  His nose hits the number 5 key!

The toy lights up and starts singing and saying congratulations you found the number 5 and he starts screaming (since he just faceplanted himself).  I scooped him up and after figuring out he was okay, I couldn't help but laugh at the fact that he did accidentally find the number 5.
