Today was just one of those days. Arthur was pretty obsessed with train building today, and I was fairly tired (and a bit grumpy for no apparent reason). After breakfast, he did Headsprout #16; sometimes he loses focus and gets bored, but he did the whole episode today without any problems at all. It’s nice to see him beginning to sound out more words on his own – I think he is grasping the bigger picture in terms of learning how to read. Most importantly, he is enjoying the process.
Other than Headsprout, there was nothing formal today. Arthur spent most of the day building new track layouts and trying to get trains up inclines. I pulled out the futon so that he could construct a layout that went up and onto the futon, which required the use of boxes, books, etc. Overall, despite being tired, it was still a very good day!
