Today Koko and I were playing with crayons and naming the colours. He still has a way to go before he can name the colours by himself, but he is at least copying me when I name them and can pick the coloured crayons up once I call out the colour. So at least there is progress there.
I left him to his own devises when Noo and I had some one on one learning this morning and he called me to look at the circles he was drawing.
I’ve been terrible at keeping this blog updated.
Today I packed out the Practica Wooden Blocks Set. Koko had a ball building towers and then knocking them over. After spending an hour on his blocks, we played a little with the xylophone and then built a puzzle. I’m chuffed that his attention and concentration spans have improved from 10 to 15 minutes.

Keeping Koko occupied during school time can sometimes be a challenge. I finally figured out that if he sits at the table with Noo (on his high chair) it keeps him out of trouble and out of our hair. As long as he can’t reach Noo’s books when he has a crayon or pencil in his hands we are “A” for away.
