26 months old

2nd February 2015

XX is officially 26 months old today. Chinese New Year is approaching so today we are going to make some cookies.

Objective: Read ABC book like what we did last week and then XX will be training his motor skill in helping mummy making cookies.

We started with reading the ABC book that we read last week. More or less XX recognise the same things like what he did last week, he did surprise me with the word KITE. XX said this is kite, the one Princess Sophia was playing and the kite fall down... (so KITE is something he learn from watching the show Sophia The First. I think although many parents was pretty much against watching TV, I do think that my kids learn quite a bit from TV show... lots of English words for example. But of course everything must be done in moderation. I wasn't too worried about XX cause he is not someone that could sit down forever watching tv, he gets bored after a while and then will go and play his toys or read a book)

After our weekly ABC learning, it is time to play with some "dough". I was busy making peanut cookies while XX was given some dough to shape into anything that he likes. He makes dog and carrot... do u think it is alike? hehe! XX was very patience when he is shaping so I guess this activity can train toddler to be more patient as well.

On top: Dog, Below: 2 carrots

Proud little chef

Pop the dough into the oven and it is done. Time for a little snack :)

It is done... snack time :)
