a happy and contented child

Evie had her two year review yesterday...

...we got there slightly early so at least we werent late ;o)

Typically the Health Visitors electronic notebook wasnt working so she had to go back to a paper copy ;o)

While she was getting herself ready I asked Evie if she wanted to sing a song and she duly sang baa baa black sheep ;o)

Evie was given a piece of paper and a pencil and was asked to copy what she had drawn (a line and then a circle) but she just scribbled on the paper ;o)

Evie was then given a shape sorter puzzle to complete (she managed to put the triangle one in).

I was then asked a whole load of questions...

does she cuddle her toys - yes
does she bring over a toy when she wants to play with you - yes
does she have temper tantrums - yes

and loads more besides...

she was then weighed and measured

When we were discussing tantrums she told me that the naughty corner doesnt really work until Evie is three and to just sit her down and distract her/calm her down.

I was even given advice on potty training - Evie tells me when she has done a poop and I have been getting her to sit on her potty every time I change her nappy (she sits on there for a second and then says she doesnt want to do anything).

All in all she said that Evie is doing satisfactorily and that she is a happy and contented child ;o)
