Monday things #1

Today, I just taught him some things.

*Okay sign..by joining his pointer and thumb into a circle shape and the rest fingers are pointing up.

*lower case of 'h'...I wrote it on his board that I called as Ipad miniature...^^
He can recognize the letter as he recognize the Hypermart icon. We saw some pictures in the Hypermart's catalog.

*Shape Sorter...I didn't get the pictures....-_-
He can almost sort the shapes; circle, rectangle, triangle and square. Hopefully I can take this pictures in this week. I'm so proud of him he can do this!

Learning Toys : Piggy Bank

Actually it is a Mickey Mouse and Friends' Bank, not a Piggy Bank shape. ^^

It supposed to be for the last week post and I didn't have the pictures yet. As he wanted to play with it today, so I got it.

He actually excels in doing this. He can put some coins to the Mickey's castle as he loves Mickey so much. Though sometimes it's according to his mood. If his mood is fine, he will put all the coins inside but don't ask if his mood isn't fine.

Learning Toys : Mega Blocks

He still can't stack the blocks by himself. I just help him to stack those then I ask him to take it off and put it on it's box.

For the first time, he wanted to do it but I can't get it with my camera. I left my camera in my room. So I just left the moment. -_-'

Then, I took the camera and I asked him again to take the blocks off. And here the results

Colors : Orange

This week, we started the day with painting Orange colors in the drawing book. He really couldn't wait to paint on it. He wanted to grab the brush when I was mixing red and yellow paint and just showing him how it mixed.
In the afternoon, we did the pasting together.
Orange things are Orange flower, Orange pumpkin, Orange carrot, Orange onion, Orange orange and Orange goldfish

Toddler : 17 months


ABC's : Coloring Aa
First day, we started the day with coloring Aa. In the beginning, Fritz was so enthusiast to do it. Few minutes later, he showed some refusal and got out all the crayons. Then he preferred playing along with the crayons, putting in and out. I had to stopped this activity and tidy up the crayons by myself...-__-'

Numbers : Coloring #1
I think, he didn't really like much in coloring. He just did it in a minute! The rest, he scrambled out the crayons. Then I gave him a blue color pencil. However, he wanted to color it though it just took 5 minutes and then he was busy to pose.

Colors : Green

This week, I continued the color's things pasted in the drawing book. It's time to learn the secondary colors, after we had done with the primary colors (red-blue-yellow). He is able to point the right things that I mentioned in every single colors.

I asked him to paint the drawing book with green by paint brush. He loved to do it (using paint brush and applying to the drawing book). Few minutes after that, he became so uncontrolled. He painted his table and in the end, he refused to continue painting.
I'm done with the painting and continued again 2 days after that to paste the green things. He's so eager to do it. I applied the glue and gave him to paste it on his drawing book. He can do it now!

Things: green frog, green turtle, green grass, green peas, 2 green frogs, green crocodile and green tree.

Shape : Circle


This activity is supposed to be going on Thursday. As I didn't have many things to do in the afternoon, I decided to do this.

As the first experiment that we did in the last day, I gave him 2 containers. I filled one with the some ice cubes and the other with the hot water. I asked him to put on both of his hands in every containers. *No pictures*

Practical Life
* Put the beads on the bottle*
He really loves to do it. He can finish it! We did it for 2 days. In the 3rd day, he refused it...

*Pouring water from glass to glass*

We did it during bathing time in the afternoon by using 2 plastic glasses. He still couldn't coordinate his both hands. When he wanted to pour the water, he still couldn't see where the other glass was. So the water was spilled out again and again. Keep trying, boy!

*Transferring objects from bowl to bowl*
He excels in doing this!

Colors : Blue

Today is Blue Day

Things in Blue are Blue Butterfly, Blue Spoon, Blue Fork, Blue Bottle, Blue Bowl, Blueberries, Blue bird and Blue Jeans.

I asked Fritz to apply blue paint and blue crayon in his drawing book. Firstly, he refused to paste the things. For the last 2 things, he wanted to paste it by himself.

In the end, I replied again the things he has pasted by pointing to the things.

Colors : Red

Red day

I had bought a drawing book and also had printed out the things in red. Such as red shirt, red shoe, red car, red short pants, red cellular phone and red bag. Then I cut it into pieces.


I asked Fritz to scribble the crayon on his drawing book with red crayon. After that, I applied some glue on the pictures and I gave to Fritz to paste it on his book. He didn't want to paste it actually, so I helped him to do it and told him the things I pasted.

In the end of this project, I replied again the red things on his drawing book. Hopefully, he will be able to recognize RED next.
