Putting Things Inside of Other Things Since 2009

SteelyKid’s day care is closed today for a Jewish holiday, so she’s spending the day at home with her grandmother. It was a real struggle to get my mother to come up for the day…

Something I’m sure is on the agenda is playing with her shape sorter box, which she was good enough to demonstrate on video:

Note the highly advanced technique– if it’s not quite working, pound on it. She gets that from me.

I cheated a tiny bit with the video, arranging it so the round hole was closest to her, and handing her one of the round objects. She hasn’t really grasped the idea of the different shapes, yet, and tends to stick whatever object she grabs into whatever shape opening is closest to her, then bang on it for a while. If that doesn’t work, she turns the whole box upside down.

But, hey, she’s a baby. She’ll get it eventually.
