Mirror mirror on the wall

oct 10

The wall mirror provides the child 

• the opportunity to see and study their own reflection, study their own movements and connect their movements with that of the reflection, this also helps the child (over time) to control their own movements
• another way of seeing the room
• encouragement to lift their head especially during tummy time, "controlling the head is the beginning of his mastering of the environment."

pardon my ill-effort of the black and white images. they kept on falling.

i used a double sided tape and blue tack to hold them to the wall.

i do not have space to convert our room to montessori rooms like this one here.

will try to create one area with a larger mirror for the children in our new home.

LOVE this pouting face!

tugs my heart when he does this

but he is a cheeky guy.

he pouts for few miliseconds, 

then he smiles.

he is a teaser, definitely!

daddy admiring himself..

loves to play with saliva, blows bubbles and will suck it back.

so atleast he does not salivate much.

still trying very hard to roll.

today he tried so hard that he yelps. asking for help? or merely annoyed at himself? i dont know :)

i tried to flip him over, but he fall back down, or momentum made him roll over to the other side.

funny guy :)

there is nothing about him that i do not adore.

i am falling deeply crazily in love with this guy.

help.

his dad teased,

your soul mate is here,

when i came to carry him away.
