Me and You

Sometimes,
I'm quite confuse,
When to use the word 'Me' and 'You'...

I always heard mummy mentioned,
Mummy: Wait... I'll take for YOU...

Thus,
When I request,
Me: Mama, take for you, please!~
Mummy: You should said, Take for ME...
Me: Take for me...

Mummy's wondering,
How could she guide me,
To correctly using 'Me' and 'You'...

  1. Hahaha! Chloe made exactly the same blunder too... confused between me and you. I guess it's normal. Later they'll know the difference.

  2. At this age or younger till after 2 years old, I normally use my child's name so that he won't get confused with "you" and "me". It's very common to have such confusion.

    Tandanie, when I realize he confuse between you and me, I also start to use his name instead of 'you' and 'me' now...

  6. Sit him on your lap.
    Hold his right hand in yours with the index finger pointing out.
    Point to himself and say "Me".
    Point to another person or teddy bear and say "you"....
    do it as and when you can, over and over again every day, till he gets it right.

    the keypoint here is not for "you", its rather for "me". So that whenever he needs something for himself, he will say "me" and then when to say "you" becomes natural.
