After we waved our guests from Finland goodbye, we went to our local playground. This time me and his dad went together and both of us, after some negotiating, stayed. Teodor is that kind of a child who is happy just with sitting in the sand, he doesn't need to run around. He always says "no" to my suggestions to try a swing or those other things there. Something weird has happened today.

| He has been refusing to try the swing since autumn |
 |
| And suddenly he was even fine with trying it alone |
 |
| He loved falling down from that thing. At first I saw some fractures about to happen, but he's probably made out of rubber. |
I am so happy that he was willing to try something different.
Btw. Tomorrow we are going to check the possible Montessori kindergarten he might start from September.
Maybe his dad being there made the difference? Or have they gone to the playground before?
ReplyDeleteI think the popular thought is, that dads bring out the adventurous side in children.
They go to the playground every weekend together, so maybe both of us being there made the difference...or he is simply growing up :) He even let me seat him on his First Bike yesterday.
