Do you ever wonder if what you're teaching your kids is going in one ear and out the other?? Owen and I were just doing a wooden animal puzzle.
Me: "Owen, what does the piggy say?"
Owen: "Mooooooo"
Me: "A cow says Mooooo... see the cow? What does the cow say?"
Owen: "Baaaaaaaa"
Me: "A sheep says Baaaaa... can you show me the sheep?"
Owen: points to the duck. "(sniffs like a pig)"
Me: "A piggy says oink-oink... is this a pig (pointing to the pig)"
Owen: "no."
Me: "Owen, I LOVE YOU!!!"
Then I asked him to pick up the puzzle pieces and he put the animals in their correct spots, almost. Silly boy.
Me: "I'm missing one puzzle piece, can you help me find it?"
Owen: "I don't know"
Me: "Owen, it's in your hand."
Excellent!! Funny little boy. He'll get it though don't you worry!
ReplyDeletetoo funny :) I'm (im)patiently waiting for Brice to talk... he's 19mos old and all he says is Mamamama or mama or meee - and a VERY distorted version of "kitty/mickey"... hope all is well!!

Funny little story. He is progressing so well. He will get all the sounds soon enough.
ReplyDeleteThat is adorable!! So far, all Caleb says for any animal sound is "moooo." I love this age! :)
