Jack and Josie spent some time hanging out together today before Jack went off to school. Yes, Toy Story 2 may have been playing on the TV, but Jack has this new "I'm ignoring you, MOM" thing going on. And it really only happens when I want him to look at the camera. As you can see, Josie was really bored...
Until Jack shared his iPad with her! Then she perked right up. Colors, lights, SOUNDS!
The app they were looking at is one of our absolute favorites - Sound Touch! Jack has been using it for over a year now. It has six different pages of "things" - pets, wild animals, birds, modes of transportation, musical instruments, and household items. At first we would touch different animals for him and say the name - a real picture of that animal would pop up and it would make the animal sound. Now he likes to find things himself. For example, I may say, "Where is the bus?" and he will find it. The cool thing is that the app rotates different pictures of each "thing". So, for example, when he touches a bear - he may see a grizzly bear, a polar bear, or a panda. Educational!
Happy Friday!
Can Jos hold her own head up? Looks like it in the photo. Ahh, she's getting so big. I miss her and Jack. IXL just isn't the same. On a side note: totally have a valentine for jack, but didn't think the sucker would make it in the mail. So...happy belated Valentine's Jack!
