Walking around! 開始學步走耶！

小恩恩開始學步走了，現在小恩恩最新的運動就是推著家裡的沙發和娃娃車在客廳裡到處走，看到新奇的事物就停下來摸摸看、嚐嚐看。有時還會跑到廚房裡玩烤箱，微波爐，真得是標準的好奇寶寶。

Bookstart! 開始閱讀

Angela took part in a story reading event held by Taipei City Library last weekend. This event was designed for babies aged between 6 month and 18 month with an aim to introduce babies to books as well as to develop their language abilities. At the beginning of the activity, the speaker played some games and introduced the little kids to say the name of their wearing such as clothing, skirt, hat, shoes, etc. Later, she read some traditional Chinese idioms from a book and asked kids to repeat.

Near the end, the speaker came to say hello to Angela and pretended to interview her. As the picture showed, Angela was more than happy to grab the microphone and tried to say something. The speaker encouraged Angela to be able to read stories to others someday when she grows up.

Mommy hoped, by attending such activity, Angela had a good start for cultivating reading habit.

Angela's Helmet 安全帽

In order to prevent Angela's head from everyday thuds and bumps when she explores on the floor, Daddy bought a Thudguard helmet for Angela a week ago. When Angela tried on the hat, she looks really cute but a bit funny because her head is too small to fit the big hat, which is one size for age between 7-month and two-year old infants. To Mommy's surprise, Angela is very interested in her new gift and instead of wearing it, she plays with it everyday. Hopefully, Angela's head grows bigger in few months and will suit the hat better.
