What do you choose?

Life is full of choices, so why not start young?  Sometimes I gather some random toys and objects and give Little Lady choices on what to grab and examine.  I don't know how this is much different than her choosing the toys out of the bin or off the floor, but it's an attention-getter.  I think the bonus is me sitting right there with her, handing her things, and asking her questions.  I also try to describe each object - its color, size, shape, purpose - so she can hear some new words.

Sometimes I'm surprised when she chooses the boring object over the bright, noisy one...




Sometimes I line a bunch of objects on the floor and she dives at what she wants.  The black can koozie marked the end of our game as she proceeded to crawl around with it in her mouth for a while.  Mmmmm....
