The Caterpillar
With the voucher that budd's family gave us, we bought this caterpillar - Counting Pal, at Kiddy Palace. =)
I always liked LeapFrog product, and this is one item that caught my attention even before I gave birth.
Designed for infants on the go, this soft learning pal is a multi-sensory learning experience with tons of activities for baby to touch, hear and see! With 4 modes of play, this pal musically introduces counting and colors, while offering a variety of different classical tunes. The Baby Counting Pal also offers an assortment of tactile activities that include: a bird squeaker, butterfly rattle, crinkly bees, flower rings and a ladybug bell for the very young explorers. Includes attachment straps (velcro) for us to attach this toy just about anywhere!
So, I am now attaching the caterpillar to bbTara's cot. Her eye level when she lies down on her bed.
And I like to play the classical musical medley to tell her that it is her nap time. It worked! =)
Recently, it seems like she has 'suddenly' noticed this pal next to her, she has been 'talking' to the caterpillar! and smiling to it! She even reached out her hand to feel the caterpillar's face as if trying to sayang it....
