Child development visit 2

Expectations;

I expect that Annabelle will be able to make shapes with the cut-out equipment, and name all of them and the colours of the play-dough- Because, as stated in the Brennand and Hall book, someone Annabelle’s age should be able to do this. I also expect to see her get more comfortable with playing along side me in parallel play.

Observations;

When we got to Annabelle’s house she was already at the door to greet me. When she recognised me she started jumping around in excitement and shouting ‘Jodie, Jodie’. Then when I came into her house she called me into the kitchen to get a big red box-- containing all of her toys for my visits-- off of the fridge. After I got it we took it into the living room and I opened it. Then Annabelle was ecstatic at what she was seeing in the box. She started to get out some stickers and crayons and things out of it. Every time she would get something new out of the box she would shout loudly ‘Taa-daa!’ After a short time of repeating this process, she noticed that I was holding something to play with during this visit. Then she was back to screaming excitedly. Her mum asked her to choose what she wanted to play with and she pointed at the play-dough I had brought. So while I was putting the contents of the red box, back into the red box, she was trying to open the play-dough, but she found the plastic wrapping too hard to open and eventually passed the box to me ‘Open pease’. So I opened the box and poured the contents of it onto the play-dough. Annabelle’s face lit up at the play-dough as she has never played with it before. She stood there in awe at all of the pretty colours and then I told her to ‘squish’ one of them, when she did this she laughed hysterically.
