Happy Happy…
Had a lovely night after battling Zoe to wear Jammies (she does it for Daddy, so why not me?) She pulled out her “Words” board book and we went through all the words. I’m thrilled to announce she said, “Zebra” and “macaroni” (first times), and it looks as though she’s mastered “socks” and “baby”. YAY! Then she pointed to the frog and said, “Ibbit, ibbit, ibbit”.
I’m thrilled. She really wants to speak and is picking up a new words maybe weekly. You have no idea how thrilling this is, dumb as it sounds…
Its not dumb at all! I think it’s brilliant!
Have you tried the race game. Instead of telling her to put on her jammies, ask her how fast she can do it..
when ever my kids didnt want to do something we always turned it into a game, even cleaning their room.. putting thier clothes in the laundry..etc. This way they wanted to do it, and quickly. To bad it doesnt work anymore now that they are older!
That’s a great idea, Ginger! Thank you. I’ll try to make it work with both girls.
