Language development
Can understand and say whatever she needs. Understands abstract concepts like happy, sad, scared, together, upside down, inside out, split, your side my side. I’m cutting the edges. First, last and middle (the order of dancing).
Recent Accomplishments:
Reading Brown Bear, Brown Bear to us. Can say her ABC correctly (sometimes) 17/7 /08. Really enjoying dancing and is easily able to follow Sue’s instructions. Starting to play imaginatively on her own, loves dressing up and pretending to be something. Has learnt how to do a short torpedo, can swim towards me wriggling through the water! Singing medleys of all the songs she knows all mixed up together. Can name all the kids in her creche group. Has learnt how to draw faces, describing them as either happy or sad. A fearless climber at the park going up the rope/climbing wall. Loves to sing lots of songs, Happy birthday, Miss Polly had a dolly, Three little dollies, Twinkle Twinkle
Games
Loves playdough making shapes and cakes. cutting, using sticky tape ‘tippy tape’, watercolours, writing letters and putting them in an envelope. Using the place mat as a wobble board. Taking photos of us. Cooking with Mum at the kitchen bench. Doing the gardening with us. Adores her tricycle.
Toilet training
Happened about 6 weeks ago…Yipeee!!!!!!!! Using the toilet, with assistance. Dora stickers helped us with success in the no. 2 department. Still using pull ups at night.
Sleep
Waking at ~ 6am, bed at 6:30 to 7:30. Mum still required to be in the bed with her until she falls asleep (fortunately it doesn’t take long). In bed with Mum and Dad during the night. Sometimes having very bad night terrors, screaming for ~20 minutes eg at the Bendigo get-together.
Cute Things
I’m just tending/just joking(to pick her nose). Don’t be bossy Mum. We’re going on a journey. Hi five cut for toast please Emma. . I got idea. We’re going to the taliban (caravan) for a holiday. I’m a bit, bit sick. When I was a baby in China (I used to lie on top of you to go to sleep). I’m filthy. You look cute Mum. Pretending to go to sleep with Dada (both of them snoring). I’m a little bit scared (of lions, sharks, the vacuum cleaner, the car wash)
Elaborate good nights with kisses through the stairs. Giving the stairs a number ‘step 8 step zero’. Taking socks out of her drawer in the middle of the night and bringing them into us. Correcting Mum’s pronunciation ‘no Mum, say hay de ho’. Saying sadly that Pa would be ‘all by himself’. Calls herself ‘chef’ when she helps Mummy cook. Calls Mum ‘Bixy Wix’ and her dad ‘Timmy Tom’.
Magic moments
Riding her tricycle full pelt to the shop, walking to the shop in the rain with her umbrella, playing on the beach with her at OG in the winter sun.
Foods
Much the same as before, loves ice-cream and sprinkles with a passion, spaghetti, and rice dishes
Books
Sleeping beauty, Charlie and Lola (Too Small for School, Lola’s Not Feeling Well), Maisy, Camille's special book (written by Mum) every night!
Television
Playschool, In the Night Garden, Dora & Diego, Maisy, Charlie and Lola, The very Hungry Caterpillar, the Wiggles, Hi -five
