I think I mentioned in an earlier post that on Monday we had the pleasure of our first parents evening at Joshua's nursery. It was great to hear about his development and some of the things he gets up to. It was also good to exchange ideas with his key worker as to how they are developing him and what we are doing at home, so we can both work together. Overall they were pleased with Joshua and have no concerns. He has shown a real keen interest in art and music related activities so far.
We have taken a copy of Joshua learning log that the nursery keep and there a couple of things in there that made me laugh. The first one is how domesticated Joshua is. At home he will often help wipe tables and the floor, he helps carry shopping in from the car and if you do not let him have a go at the hoover he screams blue murder. Anyway there are a few comments in his log about picking up the toy hoover and running it up and down the nursery!!
The second one is related to swimming. After swimming we usually let Joshua play with the hair dryer and help him dry his hair. Despite the hair dryer being too big for his little hands, he has a good crack at holding it. Well basically anything that is the shape of a hair dyer - is a hair dryer to Joshua. Anyway there is a bit in his nursery log about him picking up the toy electric drill and then taking it over to another toddler whilst waving it up/down and side to side simulating drying hair. So lets hope he never gets his hand on my cordless drill otherwise someone is in for sore head!!!!
Apparently Joshua has a friend called Rosie at nursery who by the sounds of it is very similar in character to Joshua i.e. loud, outgoing, full-on, boisterous etc.etc.. Anyway the two of them are often found getting up to mischief such as hiding toys and then looking around to see if anyone noticed. How funny!
