Could easily get colored construction papers but naaah...coloring is fun, for the ibu too!
The coloured papers are assuming the roles of parking lots, so each time he has to park his vehicles i.e. clean up, the vehicles have to go to the same-coloured lots. He hasn't actually been parking them at the correct lots though. Can't really tell if he *really* already knows his colors bcos' he sometimes calls his red car, his green car and his green car, his red car. Hmmm.. I really hope he can distinguish between green and red since a visual confusion could mean another condition, and I am really hoping it's nothing like that. Meanwhile, to the same-colored parking lots, the wheels would go. Now, thinking back, the colors that he really knows are "Ay-Yeo (Yellow)" and "Blue."
Another activity that I did with him recently was to make a collage. What I did was to cut out several pictures from old magazines. From the lot that I've cut, I asked him to choose the pictures that he liked best and we made it into a collage. No prizes for guessing what he chose.
Behold!
These were the other cut-outs that he didn't choose.
Ok, maybe the cars were a little too conspicuous that he just had to choose the cars plus the car key for his collage. I'll try again another time with fewer and smaller pictures of cars + other objects and we'll see his choice then. He had a great time nonetheless. :) We've put up his collage on the fridge door at the entrance of the kitchen.
On one weekend morning at CP, he went wild with Car! Car! Car! at the car roadshow at the atrium of CP. He knew that car parks are not a place for him to run around but CP is where he's always allowed to roam freely and since the cars there are so available for him to touch and feel, he got super excited. He circled the atrium a 1001 times, ran from one car to another and tried to open the doors of each car.
I think he'd luv us even more if we were to bring him to roadshows after roadshows. Not a bad way to the little boy's heart, no? :)
What can I say, boys will be boys! :)
