Lines!!

At Oliver's last doctor visit, the only 2-3 year milestone the doctor mentioned that Oliver had not mastered was drawing a line.  He likes to draw and has been drawing with more purpose, telling us what he thinks he made.  But despite my repeated demonstrations, he would not consistently draw a straight line for me.

Last night I had an idea.  I remembered a line game I used to play with my mom and aunt.  You fill the page with dots and each person draws a line to connect and if you make a box you put your initial in it.  

I explained the game to Oliver this morning and it was an instant hit.  He drew the lines and then requested making a car with the lines.

A little mommy victory this morning!
