lifeasdaddy - Edward's development

Edward has been progressing in all sorts of areas in the past couple of weeks.

Gabrielle was helping him with his computer mouse skills and that's resulted in his ability to use some simple kids games by himself.  One example is colouring-in on The Wiggles website.

This was a solo effort.

He has also started singing songs.  We've been singing to him since he was born, but he hasn't been keen to join in. This week he has sung verses of Jingle Bells,  Hot Potato,  and Fly Through The Sky.

Must be that music therapy kicking in.

When we've been reading stories, he has been asking me to read the blurb on the back cover of books.

His play has started to involve wanting us to take on named personae.  For example, yesterday when we were playing a train game, he wanted me to address him as "Train Driver Edward" and he called me "Passenger Daddy".  He must have liked thhose titles, because he kept calling me that for hours later, and asking me to keep calling him "Train Driver Edward".

He's nearly three.
