Let's pretend!

Camden may be 22 months but his imagination and pretend play is certainly emerging. A couple weeks back, we had a playdoh kit out. The miniature extruder has the little stencil that fits on the end of the tube. Camden ran around the house dipping it into the extruder tube and blowing (sometimes spitting) on it and then would proceed to watch his pretend bubbles. He would hold it out to me and I would blow him some make believe bubbles… to his delighted giggles.

Other imagination activities: He started pulling in and gassing up his little lawn mower. The next time, after watching daddy check and fill the oil of our lawn mower, he subsequently flips his lawnmower over and also checks the oil and fills it! Finally, while eating at his little table, he’ll run over to his little kitchen and grab his pepper grinder and return to his plate and grind a lot of pepper before finishing….

There’s more instances of pretend play and I wish I could remember them… they certainly bring a big smile and keep us very entertained!
