I wanted to show Mia and Cooper doing a good job (usually - and with my help) of allowing Elliott to be a part of some of their activities. He's handing legos to them for their project. He's really never intentionally destructive with their building activities and that's the primary key to him being included in the process.
I could include a picture of Elliott reading every day. (Well maybe I have been!! Ha!) I love how he has all those books piled on the floor around himself. And I also love how he's been wanting to be included in our daily Story Time. Very cool!
Today was the first time I've tried having him participate at Art Time. We obviously do very simple things with "art," but they get to experiment with markers, stickers, paint, etc. He's on the young end of when I usually start giving them the opportunity to participate. And it mostly hinges on them keeping things out of their mouth. :) So today we did some "dot painting!" Doesn't that sound like something he'd love!? Bang bang bang with the dot paints!! :) He did really well and stayed on task for a few minutes. He never did try to stick it in his mouth, but just grabbing with the other hand. I waited before giving him some dot paints while he watched Mia and Cooper painting so he had an idea of what was going to happen.
