Playin' With the Big Kids

Shannon is just starting to notice other kids while she plays. Right now she still pretty much plays on her own, some call it parallel play, but I do see signs that she is interested in what other kids are doing sometimes.  On this day we visited cousins, Caleb, Sarina, and Aunt Sandi and had a fun day just hanging out. Caleb is 2 years old and Sarina just turned 5 and will be going to Kindergarten in the fall.  Playing with other kids' toys is always a new adventure and today was no different. 

The kids had a fun cart that comes with food and dishes. This was Shannon's favorite thing. She pushed it up the street, down the street, and all over the driveway. Pushing things is one of her favorite things to do these days!  She was not as interested in the Cozy Coupe car. I think that will be coming soon when she has learned how to move riding toys with her feet.


Shannon tried using chalk for the first time, that lasted about 30 seconds, and she enjoyed it while Sarina took her for a ride in the push car. Aunt Sandi fixed lunch and Shannon had a blast playing and drawing with the push-up ice cream treat.... she wouldn't eat it so I just let her play with it!
