Hmm, I had the same thought process-- first I thought too confusing, then I thought that the build-up might be kinda cool...hmm. It's so hard to imagine seeing them in the new order; the mind boggles!
Ridiculously, this has actually been one of those things I have imagined when picturing myself facing the challenges of parenting... Not how would I do the birds and bees thing, or what to do about keeping them away from drugs, oh no-- "how on earth would I handle the Star Wars thing?! Maybe I'm
not cut out for parenting..."
My gut keeps saying start with the old ones, but I think it's just because I can't get over my own prejudice against the new ones. I'd be haunted by the fear that my poor innocent child might somehow misguidedly prefer the new ones (horrors!).
