She's a big talker.
at 2 she says sentances like "it's similar, its same" (if something is similar or same, sometimes she gets it wrong though)
Super good communicator with needs - "Wendy wants"... There isn't any I want yet.
She will say please if prompted but doesn't if not - we are trying to get her to say "may I please have". She tries but it appears the string of words is too difficult for her.
She's sitting next to me and heres the conversation
W- i want another paint
M - which one?
W - this one.
W- I'm painting with the lid. To close it. I want to close it (tries to put the lid back on the paint, then smears the paint off the lid onto her hand - must feel nice. Now she's using the lid like a paint brush- smacks her hand with paint onto the paper to make a print.
Then she tells me after some time "mama clean it?" and she points to the brush (an already clean brush) and then at the paper. and I refuse - because that was her artwork, /and the brush is clean = so I ask her "do you want a new peice of paper, is that what you mean? " and she says "oh yes!" and so i fold over the page and she seems satisfied with that.
It's so cute. She drops things, she picks them up. She follows instructions mostly accurately.
Communication definitely helps - there's very few tantrums where I can't communicate with her and distract her to something else. Everything with her is short lived.
It's a good age.
