Learning Toys

I gave him this puzzle to play. He could recognize some alphabet, such as letter A, F, I, K, O, P, Q. He's able when I asked him to get it. And here some letters he still needed me to help him, such as B, C, D, E, J, L, T, U....

My students gave me some these cars toys as my birthday presents. When I brought those home, Fritz was so happy. He played again and again with these. He made it in a row and looked at his style when he made it in a row....^^

Fun Time
*Playing with Aretha*



On Saturday, we spent time with one of Mom's "Mommy's on March Club", Mom of Aretha (Ms Thelly) at her home as she bought some things from Mom.

Both of Fritz and Aretha couldn't play along together firstly as it's their first meeting too. They looked awkward each other and Aretha was feeling insecure with her toys as there's someone new was busy with her toys. ^^


Both are very different. Fritz with his calmness and Aretha with her active body. Fritz was very busy playing with the kitchen set (only) while Aretha was busy doing something moving, such as singing, drinking milk from the fridge, sitting on her piggy chair and scribbling with her pen and many more. Fritz was quite happy with the kitchen set only...


After few time, they could play along together. Mommies were busy talking each other about the kids. Then, Aretha finally decided to join with Fritz playing with the kitchen set. Few minutes later, Aretha decided to play with ball and it's time for Fritz to join with her.

It's nice to see these two kids play along together....and I'm so happy that Fritz is able now to easily get into with his new environment.

For me, I think I really need much more time to get Fritz socialize with his age friends.

*Playing with Gabe*

Fritz has new friends again this week. His name is Gabe. He's Aunt Ike's son (Aunty Jiska's sister).

On Sunday afternoon, we went to Aunt Jiska's house to play with Gabe. Gabe was so excited meeting Fritz. However, Fritz was so cranky as he just woke up and Mom straightly asked him to go. He cried a loud for silly things and it made almost all the Aunt Jiska's family member went out. -__-"

After few time, Fritz was able to control his emotion and he's ready to play with Gabe. Luckily, Gabe is a friendly boy. Both were playing together. They really enjoyed their time together. Their giggling were sounding in the entire of the home. Sound so happy!!

In the end, both are saying goodbye and they had recognize their friend's name. Happy a lot!! ^^
