Thank-you for the response.... I figure there will be alot of differences of opinion. I know its ultimately up to me and my family for what works...but I was curious and its nice to have a side from someone who 'went for it'.... I really want to just follow her lead and it is not text book by anymeans. I think there should be a book for working with advanced toddlers or something. Stories from parents and how they survived and thrived including such things as toys that they are interested in but will not choke on. My DD does not put things in her mouth except to irritate me...but that still means she puts things in her mouth.... The computer is a bit big.... The toys that she is interested often have small parts and so I don't feel comfortable being completely oblivious to what she is doing with them. I think the book could include the feelings that go along with watching your child do something that they are not suppose to be doing by a long shot...both the wow cool and the ohh my and the what does this mean...how do we handle this... did I really see what I thought I just saw...Maybe there is a book already out there but if not someone on this board should collect stories and do it! An anthology.... ahh I am off point.
I am glad to hear that you had no bad reprecussions...How did you keep your work safe on the computer...Like accidently slips into files that should not be changed? What mouse did you use? My DD is getting more and more independent and some motor skill development would be great to have along with the phonics stuff. I have looked on the pbs and not sure what you are referring I keep getting just like links to various things...thanks
