Imagination

We have seen a lot of evidence of Davis' emerging imagination lately.  The last few days he has had long, interactive play sessions with his animals.  He has particularly enjoyed preparing food and feeding his monkey and lion.  I captured about 7 minutes of a 45 minute play session the other day.  I stopped the video a little bit too early - he accidentally spilled some food he was giving monkey and walked off into the other room.  What is missing from the video is where he brought a chair back, put it in the corner and put himself in timeout.  I tried to explain that timeout is not for accidents and that he did not do anything wrong.  I felt a little sad and amazed at the same time - we've never put him in timeout for a mess before so I wonder what went on in his head.

Here is the long video:

And a shorter one where I manage to get him to tell his joke:

1. Knock Knock
2. Who is there?
3. Apple
