Just for fun, me and Cristy decided a few months ago, to have Kirstin and her daughter Kaitlyn talked on the phone and surprisingly, they did! They talked for hours (watch out for the bills)! I don't know how they could possibly understand each other but we just let them talk. It's so cute and funny...I can't help not to laugh just listening to the way she talks, as if she knows how the world works already! Haha! This time, now that Kirstin can talk more clearly, Cristy and I let them talk on the phone again and I overheard Kirstin saying "Haha! That's funny Kaitlyn!" That made me laugh even harder!
Another thing that she's fascinated about is order. Kirstin starts to want to put things in order (I'm not really sure if she wants it or she just wants to follow my order, any case it works for me!), so tidying up after play is an easier task, provided I make the orders simple for her to pick up like: "Pick up all the blocks; now pick up the cars." At this age, praise for good behavior is a strong motivator, so I try to supply it often.
