After learning the difference,
between up and down,
by climbing the staircase...
Now mummy start teaching me another pair of words,
With opposite meaning...
And I understand it well...
Everytime during my bath time,
Before going into my bath tub,
I'll test the temperature with my little toe first...
If it's just nice,
I'll just go in and start pom pom...
Else,
I'll inform mummy:
Hot hot...
Sometimes,
Mummy will said:
Not hot la...
Just nice enough...
Yet,
I still insist it's too hot for me...
And request her to add some cold water into my bath tub...
Whenever mummy open the shower...
I'll use my little finger to touch,
And tell mummy:
Cold cold...
And I learnt,
Hot + Cold = temperature just nice enough for me to bath...
Since I love to drink soup recently...
Everytime when mummy want to feed me,
I'll tell her:
Hot.. blow~~~
Yet,
Sometimes mummy told me chili is hot,
Curry is hot...
I can't eat it...
I wonder why mummy don't blow...
And feed me later...
Sigh~
seriously, one of the most consoling word my boys finally get to express (when they were still learning) was
ReplyDelete"Hot"
becos it was sooooooo important!
we can test with our elbows, our lips, but ultimately, none of our parts are as sensitive as theirs... so we can never conclude what's right for us, is just nice for them...
so when they could say "hot", I was going *phew* finally, I know.
I'm trying to imagine Sean's cute little toe wriggling in the water to check the temperature. So cute!
ReplyDeletenext time mommy must say Curry is SPICY! LOL!
ReplyDeletehaha, my boys are confused with the word "HOT" too. So now I tried to use "Hot" for warm & "Spicy" for the chilli :):)
ReplyDeleteIts very interesting teaching kids to learn opposite words ya! So fun!
ReplyDeleteAngeline, truely agree with u, Sometimes we might think it's right for us, but not just nice for them...
ReplyDeleteOlive, haha~~ Very cute... And he always did that now..
Merryn, yah, I must teach him the word 'spicy' instead of just 'hot'...
