I always like to look back and see what Guiliana was into and at what age. She has definitely moved on from her once huge love for Mickey and Minnie and the Disney Channel in general. I am really glad that we decided to have a Minnie Mouse Birthday party when she turned 2 because she had so much interest in her at that time and it was perfect! Right now she is very much into The Princesses, particularly Belle and Ariel. She also has really gotten into Dora as well (she has picked up so much spanish from both Dora and her school. She said to me the other day... "Mama, lets vamanos!")
I am very pleased that she has found a new love for books. We have always had a lot of books for her but she never took an interest. Now she wants us to read and for her to read (make up the story) to us too. She is speaking in full sentences and she is fun to hang and chat with. She loves music (any kind really and will sing along in the car all the time) and enjoys dancing. We noticed her love for music and dancing and enrolled her in a dance class at school which is every Friday. Grandma says that she watches her dance and she pays attention and follows the teachers every move!
She knows her full name, can recognize it on paper, and can almost spell her first name. She can count to 10 in Spanish and to 20 in English and has known her ABC's for about a year now. She is really thriving at her school and is doing very well. She is learning so much. They are teaching her the days of the week, the months of the year, and they have activity/art stations everyday. Next week at school they are learning all about grocery shopping. They have to bring in coupons, ads, a shopping tote, as well as some items to "shop" for. I am very impressed with what these kids can retain at such an early age.
I love (and can dislike at times) that she has her own likes/dislikes and opinions. She definitely has become a strong willed and independent little gal.
