Grandma Brenda brought Will some fun things when she visited a week ago, and they have been THE things to play with recently. First, he got this new chair, which he really likes because it's small enough for him to carry around to somewhere he wants to have a seat, and he can climb into it by himself. He sits in it a lot now, and his favorite place to sit is about one foot in front of the TV in the basement. In case you're wondering, that giant sticker he is proudly wearing on his tummy is half of the label to the diaper genie bag dispenser. See if you can find where the other half is.
Grandma also brought Will these cool glasses. So Will got to double his pleasure by trying the glasses on while sitting in the chair.
After he wore the glasses for awhile to feel smart, Grandma unveiled this pretty toy, which in addition to being fun to touch is actually a functioning calculator called an abacus. I'm not sure how it works exactly but there are stories of Chinese and Japanese children who can do complex arithmetic with one of these and get answers faster than another person who punches the numbers into an electronic calculator. That normally takes several years of training but we're starting Will at a young age, since, as Grandma Susan says, he "thinks about math" a lot.
Do you see the other half of the diaper genie label?
