Playtime with my twins

Finally I got some time to write some words about my two little cuties. They started going  to playschool. But they miss the home too much…especially kannan.

He doesn’t wanted to leave home where he can do all the mischievous activities..at playschool he doesn’t have that freedom to do his adventures….he likes to play with the nature…play with butterflies or the ants or the worms in the sand …last month when we visited our uncles house his cousin sister showed him how to pick up a caterpillar in the leaf and throw it away …from then onwards whenever he sees a caterpillar he quickly finds out a little leaf and tries pushing it on the leaf … seeing the caterpillar itself makes me say ahhh    and seeing kannan doing all this stuffs  …u can presume how I will feel...it’s very difficult to distract his attention from this

Only way is to find some games which he is interested on …his favorite game is playing boat on staircase

Myself kannan and unni sits on staircase ..staircase is our boat and I will give two small sticks to both of them…they starts towing the boat singing the boat race song their grandma taught them

“vallam mungi thuzha poyi thithai thaka thai thom

Thallu kondu pallu poyi(they sing this as pallu kondu thallu poyi…)

Playing boat on teapoy

After that I say some tasks like “see a shark is coming …shot a fire …go and catch it “

Their action begins ‘dishoom dishoom’ (They learned this gun tactic from play school friends…unni even knows to build a gun using building blocks…unni loves imitating actions..he holds the gun and do actions like action heroes in TV…their KochuTV J)

Next I say  “catch a fish “. we even catches blue whale J  …unni  shows action like eating and says he ate the blue whale …he he  ..Their Imaginary world is wonderful!!!

This Game is a success for me as I can make then sit on the staircase with these little imaginations for a long time..(its difficult to keep their attention on a single job for more than 5 minutes)

We have now started our crayon imagination too..but mummy is the creator  now…because their little fingers are not  ready  to draw the figures of their imagination

I draw some pictures for e.g. of a train ..Asks them who all they wanted to carry in their train Kannan says”unni,kannan,achan,amma,appu(appuppan),ammu(ammumma),maman,aunti,uncle,chechi…….his lists covers everyone he is closer to. Then I asks him where he want to go …he always want to goto beach ..because it is the most interesting place he has ever visited. Then our journey begins …goto beach…then play with balloons …

I can see his face changing with all this imaginations going on in his mind..

If the journey stops there quickly he takes the next paper and asks me to draw next item …usually it is a boat …I have to draw the boat on two papers ..one for unni.. one for kannan ..otherwise a boat wreck takes place :) .wherever I draw Unni’s face I have to draw Kannan’s face too..

Kannan is keen on noticing these things..he always wanted to get the best …if we give him two biscuits and tell him to give it to Unni  ,first he will taste the two biscuits and give one to Unni ..even for milk bottle …he sips little milk and then give the bottle to Unni.

One day they where quarrelling for a small nail cutter suddenly my father told Unni that he will give a big nail cutter to him…for our surprise kannan suddenly stopped quarrelling gave the nailcuttter  in his hand to Unni…and asked father  to   give the big one to him J

Luckily Unni is not interested in these things ..but not always

Sometimes Unni  keep watching everything silently.. like when kannan is sitting in my lap…when he leaves suddenly unni comes and sits in my lap and do whatever kannan was doing (kannan usually acts like he is a 3 months old baby…shows actions of baby …Unni repeats the same )

Kannan is the inventor of all new naughty things …when I am bathing kannan, unni stands at the door of the bathroom and keep watching all the mischievous things kannan is doing with the water ,pipe and cup …when his turn comes he repeats all these things ..Pouring the water over his head …sitting inside the bucket ..drinking water from the cup…pouring water on mummy’s head ..ditto

It’s  time for bringing them back from playschool . Time for  my real-time adventure begins now ………

so bye for now ..
