More on the Guitar

As I reported earlier, Luis loves loves loves the cardboard guitar that Diego made for him. It is one of the few toys that has a permanent resting spot - so Luis can find it at a moments notice. Lately, it is often required on a moments notice as well: Luis loves to "play along" to the theme songs of his favorite TV shows (Bob the Builder being is FAVORITE sing-a-long). Here, Luis is rocking out to The Laurie Berkner Band (You're My Family).



Luis, in the evening, often has one last burst of energy after dinner. The way we usually get it out is to play a few rounds of "Chase Me". When one of us chases Luis, it is a simple, almost circular path through the living room, dining room and kitchen. To spice up an otherwise less-than-exciting game, Diego and I tend to take a much more zig-zaggy route through the same rooms. Luis seems to like the more complicated path, but can't quite seem to lead that way. However, last night, in his own effort to make it more interesting, we played Chase Me and Guitar Singing at the same time. I'm kinda glad that no one was home to witness Luis and me, running pretty fast around the house together, Luis with his cardboard guitar and both of us singing, "Scoop, Muck and Dizzy, Rolly toooo, Lofty and Wendy, join the crew..."
