Jean’s Autum Joy (by sarah)
Jean loves autum as soon as the leaves started falling she was collecting them up carefully - one of each type and giving them to me to sto in the pushchairs basket! Then there was the fun of kicking the leaves, picking up handfuls of them and watching them twerl about in the wind and then to her emmense joy there were conkers!
'Corcon! Corcon!' she cries as she collects one for each person physically there with her. She loves putting them in pockets and gets destressed when she drops them into irretivablity!
She also likes kuggles! Which she calls for mostly when she wants to be carried somewhere. But the little outstretched arms and pleas of 'Cuggle! Mummy Cuggle!' are very endering - she will also kiss 'ouchies' on other people and stroke your arm in an endering manor (reguardless of how bruised the area of ouchy is!).
Other cute things that she's doing at the moment are singing along to the childrens rhymes and songs - so for The Wheels on the Bus we get disjointed doot doot for the horn beeping with the hand action of the whipers going followed by 'all day...' somehow she misses the long off the end!
Woaw woaw = row row your boat which she will play with 'My Bear' on her own 🙂
Rouw Rouw = Round and round the garden - this rhyme actully goes:
Round and Round the garden like a teddy bear (you run your index finger around the palm of her hand) One step, two step (your fingers walk up the arm) And tickly under there! (you tickle either under the arm or on the kneck)
Jean will do this rhyme to you though it goes (with actions bar the tickling which she doesnt yet get how to do - thank goodness!):
Rouw, rouw Bear Stair! giggle
This is really endering as is the fact she puts everything to bed carefully tucking in her beaker with an enverlope etc... 🙂
