Bigbob Posted October 12, 2022 Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 I watch my Grandson who 3 im 61 and cant keep up with him as he is a real live wire but its pouring outside so he has a coffee table covered with dinosuars and watches you tube a Japanese guy i think has covered all his Plastic Dinosuars in paint Red ,Green ,Blue and Pink then he drops them into a bucket of water and washes the paint off . It gets to me after a couple of times but he would watch it all day naming the dinos as they come out the water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave at kelton Posted October 12, 2022 Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 My grandchildren loved dinosaurs. I bought a huge box and put them in the washer. My granddaughter was still playing with them at 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manthing Posted October 12, 2022 Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 My grandsons 20 months and tractors are his thing. Toy or real, when the lads are harvesting he sits in the garden watching them go past as long as well let him. When thay are parked up he sits in them and pretends to drive them.

30-6 Posted October 12, 2022 Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 My grandson will be 3 in December, I asked him what he wanted for Christmas and he said toy car, cheese and a snack. Dinosaurs are a favourite with all kids. It amazes me how clever for their age they are. Search on you tube for ' Herman the Worm '. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted October 12, 2022 Report Share Posted October 12, 2022 My granddaughter is nearly 20 months old and we do various different things with her as she can get "fixated" on things, but that is part of the learning process. What we do is break the different "fixations" up, she will play with certain toys a certain way for a while, then a snack, perhaps something arty afterwards but we tell her what she is going to do, "play first then snack." When we are giving her snack we tell her, "Snack now then painting." It helps break things into easier to understand pieces, 2 things are easy, 3 or 4 is harder and can become choice paralysis where they cannot make a choice as there are too many things for them to be able to make a choice. Thankfully my wife used this for 30+ years in her job in education. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
