Another post I wrote a million years ago and forgot to publish! Now he builds his own tunnels and the cute "neat feet" mispronunciation has corrected itself. *sigh*
Kids can learn through play all by themselves of course, but sometimes it is fun to add in a new element for them. I built a Lego wall with tunnels just the right size for each of New Kid's vehicles. Every time he drove one through, "Neat feet!" he exclaimed. (Translation: "It fits.")
Added bonus: he played a bit longer by himself and I may or may not have read a few pages of my novel.
