Sprout is now doing the actions that go along with Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, which he's learned from song time at sentoo (the Mount Pleasant Family Centre)
He's now singing along with strumming his ukulele
From the moment he gets up to the moment he falls asleep at night, he's constantly requesting we sing him his favourite songs (ECD=the ABC song, tinko-tinko=Twinkle Twinkle)
Sprout's picking up manners: he says genku (=thank you) when he receives AND gives things
He says hi to kids & a few adults everywhere we go & thinks nothing of approaching a group of teenagers & walking off with their soccer ball
Which leads me to his latest 'sporting' achievement: he's starting to actually kick soccer balls, rather than just carrying them around
Sprout's new favourite book is The Airplane Ride, about a little boy from Vancouver who flies across Canada with his parents.
He has finally got the hang of regular sippy cups, which is a boon to us, as the take & toss variety that we've bought a few of are much easier to clean than the straws & valves & sliding lids of the Playtex straw cups. Also less of a worry if we lose one on the road, as they're $5 for four.
Kiddo's loving the apples this week & keeweets are also a big hit.
Walking continues to excite Sprout & though he loves stroller rides, he'll often demand to walk instead. Biking continues to outrank both walking & stroller riding, however.
Here's a short video of Sprout doing some window shopping on Main Street recently.
