I only have the two youngest residents of Little Treasures today; Hudson and Avilene, so it's a little slower and quieter than usual around here! :) First thing this morning Hudson and I did our daily ritual of sounds together. He makes a sound and I'll mimic it, or I'll make a sound and wait for him to mimic it. Then he played with the baby saucer that you see in the picture below. He likes to twirl the wheel with little beads in it and you can see how fast his hand was moving. Plus, I think this is a great picture of Hudson. Very cute.
I was able to get a picture of him talking on the phone! (As you well know, you have to be fast with the camera because Hudson is a fast mover!!) Today was the first time I've seen him doing this and I was excited! This is an example of "dramatic play" where they are basically acting out/pretending something they see in daily life. It's a developmental milestone of pretend play. And he actually said something when he put it up to his ear. "Hello"- maybe? :) Talking on the phone is almost ALWAYS the first type of pretend play we see - no surprise there, right!?! It's probably the most common activity they see every day!!
No sooner had Hudson "got off the phone" (ha!) and he went on the #2 dramatic play for the morning!! He started "combing his hair!" I have several combs in this toy set and the comb he's holding in the picture is the one that Sophie has used to comb his hair! :) Love this! He totally knew what to do with it; immediately put it up to his head to comb!
