Meltdowns & math
Ethan doesn't have a lot of meltdowns, but it always catches me off-guard when he does. We didn't have a great weekend. Sunday we went to Mochitsuki at PCC, including the hour-long show. He enjoyed the taiko (and Linna LOVED the taiko), but he ended up getting very upset. One of his rare full-on meltdowns. Jeff had to carry him outside. Not that fun.
In other news (*BRAG WARNING*), last week he was reluctant to go to preschool. When I probed about it, he said the activities weren't fun anymore. I mentioned it to his teacher, and she said she'd try to watch him and maybe introduce some new activities. She did, and on Thursday he did this new abacus-like thing for doing math. Friday morning he was all excited to do it again... and apparently it's all he did on Friday, so that by the end of school on Friday, he had done every single addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problem that there was. Um, so much for that. But today he was still excited, because I guess Kristin told him about another new activity to do. Hope he doesn't run out!
