Oh, technology. It is always changing. Even the first iPod shuffle, which was the size of a stick of gum, seems like a distant memory.

As the kids struggled how to operate the ancient technology, Shannon, 9, said "I cannot imagine living your guys' day with this." Try running with it, Shannon.

There seemed to be one girl that appreciated how far we have come. "It amazes me how technology changes," said Samirah, 8.

Very wise. She'll be the inventor of the next big thing in 15 years.
