We worked a lot on animal sounds this week in tot school. We took the kids to feed the ducks in hopes of inspiring Kael to answer "What does the duck say?" When prompted, he did say "ack" once, but he hasn't done it again, so I'm not sure if it was just a coincidence.
Playing with play-doh at home.
We ended up doing several field trips last week, mainly because my sister was in town. These pictures are from Legoland. Kael has been there several times before, but he is just getting to the age where he is really start to appreciate it all and engage himself in the activities.
After we got home, we also played Legos. In this picture, Kael is waiting for Kai to finish building a tunnel for his little car to go through.
After the tunnel, he decided that the tub was more fun than the blocks.
This next activity was recommended by Kael's developmental therapist to help with his self-feeding. The idea is to dip the spoon in peanut butter, so that the cheerios have something to stick onto making it easier for him while he uses a spoon.
He did pretty well with the concept and was successful in getting several Cheerios to his mouth. However, it didn't hold his interest for long..I think partially because he doesn't really like Cheerios all that much. He was more interested in feeding Kai and Mommy. I think next time I will try some Honey Nut Cheerios to add a little more flavor.
Here Kael is touching the ice wall in the Arctic exhibit at Sea World.
Kael played with several balls. A ball of any type is by far his favorite toy.
We tried the pom pom fill and spill that I have seen on several other blogs, and it was by far the hit of the week. Kael did this activity for at least a half an hour.
Kai wanted to try this out too. So Kael put some of his pom poms into his brother's bottle.
