Crayons

We have been working on crayons. Slowly but surely Emerson is grasping the purpose, how to hold them, the different colors they make, etc. Well, earlier today we had the jumbo coloring book and crayons out. She was not that into it so we stopped.

After naptime she was having a snack in her play area and I was on the computer. She was awfully quiet. I look and she is coloring with the stuff that was still out from earlier. She finally got it! She was so proud of herself too.

I went back to the computer for a few minutes. After I finished what I was working on, I got down on the floor with her to color and she gives me a big smile... her teeth, lips and mouth are covered in crayon bits. She instantly started giggling as if she knew exactly what I was thinking. Apparently she had finished her snack and decided to try crayon.

Purple was her color of choice. Go frogs!
