Guest guest Posted June 30, 2006 Report Posted June 30, 2006 We had a very nice time at the library today. There is an "exploration room" in the children's area. A large classroom for group use, but when there is no group children can go in with a parent to explore the educational toys there. Another girl was there with her mother so of course Faith wanted to join in. They were tossing beanbags, sorting by color into boxes. Faith joined in so Mom got to stop playing. The girls continued with other imaginative play for about 45 minutes. They had a great time. As we were leaving Faith picked up a book and gave it to the girl, reading the title to her. She was surprised Faith could read and asked how old she was (she's 8). I then asked what grade she was in and was also surprised...she is going into 5th grade! I was amazed that an 11 year old typical child played so well for so long with Faith! She was really not "playing down" to her, either. They seemed matched in their play! It was fun! ette Quote
