French Lessons

Since Toby has moved up to the older group at daycare I have lost track of the multitude of things he is learning at circle time each day. Some days he comes home asking what time it says on the clock while other days he analyzes the weather trying to decipher when exactly fall ends and winter beings. My favourite is when he tries to engage me in a debate about what day of the week it is. Needless to say, he has yet to fully GRASP all of these concepts …it’s a work in progress.

Last night at dinner, however, he shocked us. We were (as usual) discussing our plans for the week when he very matter-of-factly turned to Rob and said, “Today is MONDAY and that means tomorrow is TUESDAY and if you want I can say that in French; Lundi, Mardi.”

So there you have it. Apparently he DOES know the days of the week (or at least the first two) and some French to boot. Who knew??
