Today was Mikee’s first day to attend her play group. We arrived there early with socks on and no piece of body jewelry. The idea is to familiarize her with the place before the “lesson” starts. Then one by one, her playmates arrived. She easily became friends with the other kids. She had no trouble with sharing. She willingly let go of the toy once a playmate gets it from her. Passive?

The trouble started during the welcome song. All the kids were sitting obediently with their mommies. Then Mikee stood in the center of the circle and started jumping and dancing to the music. This had motivated the other kids to join her. So all 5 kids were jumping. Woohoo! So I’d say my daughter is quite influential. Hahaha.

I was able to take just one picture because I was busy convincing Mikee to sit down and sing with the teacher.

Would you believe that today had been educational for me as well? I learned that there are a lot of simple words inside the house that I can (and should?) teach Mikee. Nouns and verbs. This has been a problem to me. I just teach what is on Mikee’s poster and books. I never had a guide. Now my mission this week is to “review” her with her “lessons” today.
