Zoophonics (the last class)

Kai in his African dance wear.

April 29, 2008 Tuesday

Today is Kai's last zoophonics class which we really enjoyed. Every week he looked forward to attending even if he was easily distracted. All those stuffed animals you see there were of his doing- he would drag them in from the waiting room and they plunk his little body on it (he's in the yellow tshirt).

(A picture of a picture of the students after the African dance session.) His instructor was really good. Kai can match all 26 letters of the alphabet (which really impressed me), will chant all the animals name with each letter and do the sign that goes with each with some assistance.

Plus now, he is talking in 3-word sentences and using bigger words like "choke" - when he swallowed his popsicle wrong, and "loud" when Blue our parrot was sqwaking away. Daycare tells me he talks all the time. And to add, he is learning his colors by picking out the colored M&M I request. I like the part where if he doesn't get it right, I eat the M&M. ... a neat idea I got from my sister. Thanks ug!
