It’s pretty fun to try something we haven’t tried for a while with Calix and see how he has advanced in just a few months. We put our Duplo Legos away months ago, because Calix couldn’t get the pieces together in the least. Calix had been asking about them recently, so I got them out yesterday. And, suddenly, he can snap them together! Colin has been waiting for this moment for about 2.5 years. Calix is easily frustrated when the pieces won’t do what he wants, but he keeps trying and trying. It’s awesome to watch him and Colin working together on stuff. For Calix it’s pretty undirected so far – he just smashes some pieces around until they go together. He does sometimes take a stack of the blocks and say that it’s a particular thing, like choo choo train or a truck.
Where to place the next brick?
... and placed
Well worth the long wait!
