Riana is learning a lot of new things at the daycare. After spending just two weeks in the toddler section, Riana learnt how to scream and throw temper tantrums! She fake-cries just to get attention… Phew… While she is learning a lot of things from observing other kids and some of them are not very pleasant, there are also things that I adore.
She is very independent now. They do not feed children in the toddler classroom. She is learning how to spoon feed herself. She tries to comb her hair and wear her socks. She does not mind sharing her toys with others. If you ask for a toy, she will bring it to you and happily hand it to you. Once of the best things about daycare is that the kids learn to share their personal belongings.
She can communicate better now with words as well as gestures. If she doesn’t want milk, she says “no” and shakes her head off. When she is finished eating, she says “aa-don” meaning “all done”. If we ask her to sit down, she sits down. She even puts her toys in the toy box when asked. She puts the diapers and burp cloths into the appropriate baskets. Isn’t that adorable? She’ll come to you if you ask her to. When you want to change her, she walks up to you and sits in front you facing her back to you. She likes to greet people with “hi” and “ello”. She also loves to wave good bye and says “ba-bye”!
My little baby grew so fast into a toddler. Now, she is becoming a person with her own personality. A sweet one…
