Counting and more...

Caroline started learning how to count objects a few days ago. I think we really have it down now. I first started with 2 chocolate chips and asked her to tell me how many there were. It's no surprise how easily motivated a child is when there is chocolate involved. Now we count little plastic bears. She really enjoys lining them up and counting down the row of bears.

Yesterday while we were out shopping, she proudly exclaimed "momma dog and baby dog!" Of course the fact that it was lab and and a small dog was not important. She then began to apply these labels to anything...trees, rocks, sticks, and so on. It's quite amusing.
