Small Steps, Amazing Achievements: Apple!

This week, S has been wandering about the house saying,

A-paaah!

A-paaah!

A-paaah!

To be honest, at first I wasn't sure what she was on about; I thought maybe she'd learned it at nursery or something. I tried to see if she was looking or pointing at something when she said it, but she was mostly just wandering about the house saying it.

After a couple of days it changed to

A-pul!

A-pul!

A-pul!


and I figured out what it was!

I mentioned in this post some time ago, that we were enjoying reading a library book called Orange, Pear, Apple, Bear. A friend then very kindly posted us a board book of it, and we've been reading it almost daily since.

S has always been a big fan of the bear, and for a while we had some confusion between "bear" and "pear" (both were called bear) but now, out of nowhere, and with the book in the bedroom for bedtime stories, she was running around the living room shouting her own version of "Apple!"
