What's up with Srinidhi recently? Hmm...

His vocabulary vastly increased to several hundred words. He picks up several new words everyday. He talks very well, even people other than his parents can understand easily :-)

He learned to use the mouse very well. He will ask, "Amma, please login computher, I want to play Percy memoeey game". All we have to do is login and start his webpage. He knows how to navigate from there. He knows all the icons, buttons, how to go back, how to close popups etc. He enjoys playing many games on storyplace.org and pbskids.org. He has mastered several games from those sites.

As I mentioned before, he uses his left hand a lot - he seems to be a lefty. When he started using Veena's computer, the mouse was right handed; he was okay with it and that's where he learned to use the mouse. After a while, he moved it to his left hand. So I changed the mouse settings for left hand. He didn't have any problem adjusting to it! He is fluent in using right and left handed mice!

Even though he knows and uses many Tamil words, he mainly speaks in English :-( It is one of our priorities to teach him to speak in Tamil. But we are going to wait for some time for him to adjust to his school first. It may get more difficult as we delay, but there isn't much we can do. Make him understand Tamil must be relatively easy, but to make him speak both, we will just have to try!

Oh, he learned a new game, treasure hunting. He will hide his toy, or ask us to hide and search for it.
