Training the parents on Windows 8

Well the computer is ready.  I have installed the apps, set up his start screen and even set up an account for Travis's older brother Jaret.  Now for the real challenge - training the parents.
Well that's not really fair, my daughter Mireille (or Mimi as everyone calls her because no one can pronounce Mireille), like all of our children are pretty good with computers.  They were brought up that way.
Mimi is a manager for a technology company and is very skilled with Windows 7 but like everyone else who hasn't used it, is a little apprehensive when it comes to Windows 8.  As a result, I will have to spend a hour with her going though Windows 8.  The challenge is to find an hour where she doesn't have here two boys demanding her attention.
She will be the administrator on the system and as a result will have to approve everything the boys do on the system.  Windows 8 Family Safety is excellent she can easily control what they do, where they can go on the internet and when.  Travis' birthday is fast approaching so we will have to arrange the training session soon.
