In order to teach our children, I have created placemats that deal with various subjects such as anatomy (the skeletal and organ systems), astronomy, numerals in various languages, the Plan of Salvation, the Book of Mormon timeline, etc.

One night, my sons and I reviewed the Presidents of the United States placemat during dinner and I taught my sons about Richard Nixon. The conversation went something like this:
Four year-old: "Why was he called Tricky Dick?"
Six year-old: "Because he was tricky and he was a dick."
'Nuff said.
