Dot's Montessori Shelves At 16mos.

I love this age.  It is so exciting to observe Dot at 16mos with all the new things she is doing, wanting to do and attempting to do. .  Busy!  Busy!

Here is a small glimpse of what she is up to at the moment.

A string of beads was recently broken and beads went all over the floor.  As Dot and I were picking them up and putting them in a container I decided to try this.  It is a fish shaped bath tub gripper.  The little suction cups are perfect for putting beads in.  She did a few but was most interested in taking the ones I put in out.

Here are her animal figures for matching to their pictures.  I introduced her to these animals on a trip to the zoo recently.  I prefer her to see the real thing before I give her the figure.
