My princess knows how to pretend, such as imagine the Elmo (plush toy) is crying, and she will say "Elmo is crying. He is hungry. He wants to drink milk. His diaper is so wet." Or she will hold her watering can toy and pretend she has a garden full of flower patches. She will go and water the plants and said "beautiful flowers." Sometimes she will pretend to cook, and pass her daddy or me the "food" to munch. At times, she will pretend herself as a giraffe, eating the toy tree leaves. @.@

My princess is better in her motor skill now. It can be showed when she tries to do coloring. She knows how to adjust better and color the part where she wants. I think she is quite artistic as she always start from red, follow by orange, yellow, blue, green and so on to mix the color together. If she color brown, she will mix with black. My hubby and I feel quite surprised that she can do it without us teaching her.
Colours:
She can say out the mixture of the colours.
Blue + Red = Purple
Blue + Yellow = Green (will still forget at times)
Red + Yellow = Orange
Black + White = Grey
Red + White = Pink
Seasons:
She can say out and differentiate the 4 seasons and pretend to shiver when she mentioned winter. Very funny.
Spring
Summer
Autumn
Winter
For her reading progress, she can start reading in paragraph confidently since 27-month-old. There was one time when she was sitting on my lap and I was busy replying SMS, she looked up and read out my message loudly. Sounds funny but really have to watch out this girl who can read our 'secrets' from our iPhones now.
Like other kids, she loves to play with her iTouch, our iPhone and iPad. She knows how to read so we just let her explore those children apps after we downloaded for her. I feel thankful that there are so many free education apps available. ^^
p/s: One little cute thing she likes to do when she sees her parents are hugging. She will immediately run towards us and hug both of us too and said, "Hugging. Daddy, mummy and Claryssa are hugging. I love you!" ^^
