- could put rings on a pole. haven't learnt the order yet.
- socializing (hello, shake hands, good morning, good night, kiss)
- identifies time to bed. When we put the bed, he comes and lays down.
- tries to dance. He does few good steps. He does whenever a beat song comes.
- seems he loves songs. He listens patiently for few good songs.(Vizhi moodi yosithall.., )
- we haven't allowed him earlier to eat by himself fearing he will put everything into his mouth. Slowly started teaching to eat by himself, he now does that for chips, pori, chappathi..
- tries to draw lines on slate, paper using pencils.
- knows when someone takes photo or video. Give poses. And after the click, he runs behind too see how it has come
- he often brings my mobile camera and ask us to show the photos and videos of himself.
- we have got a big ball with pictures and letters on it and also few posters/books about alphabets, animals, fruits, vehicles. We are not sure, whether he understood them or not, but he liked the learning & teaching. Very often, he himself takes them and compels us to teach something in it. He is able to identify now few birds, vehicles.
- playing skills. Could throw the ball, push the ball with bat/stick, imitates talking over phone, play with cars
- one thing he has learnt well is to organize things neatly (sometimes :-)). He often arranges things in kitchen as he spends most of day time with mom in the kitchen. He brings all the plates out of kitchen and puts them in bookshelf or tray. Often, we had to search for things in dustbin, someother place where we would not image it would have been there.
- stamps on the ants with a sound
- could climb stairs alone and come down.
- identifies dove as there are few near my house. identifies moon & stars in night
