Following instructions can be a challenge for us sometimes. I notice that Sophie would occasionally try to do the opposite just to tease me. She knew I would get all agitated and she found it amusing.
After a while, Sophie became obsessed with applying paint on a specific spot. I do not really know the significance of that but it got me a little concerned.
Usually, I would cut out the letters before letting her paint on them. This time, I let her work on the two letters on the same cardboard. Despite all, I was surprised that she did one letter at a time instead of treating them as one single picture.
I did not understand how she could be so fixated with BOTH getting paint on and off her fingers. She enjoyed dipping her fingers in paint yet she kept wiping the paint off on the cloth.
I cut the circles (dots) by hand and let Sophie stick them on the letter “D”. She seemed more interested to do pasting although she made sure we pasted ALL the dots before we stopped.
All in all, we did a decent job although I wish she could follow my instructions a bit better than she did.
