Some days my kiddos surprise me with their ideas. We were playing the other day with our Fisher Price Little People animals 
and zoo mat, when Sweet Pea disappeared for a few minutes. When he came back he was carrying the Fisher Price Little People Let’s Go to the Zoo
book! He had read that book the night before and evidently remembered the animals in the book are the same ones we were playing with! We had never made that connection before.

The next thing I knew Cutie Pie opened the book and started placing the animals on their corresponding pictures! I tried to take a picture of this, but it didn’t come out too well. Above is a pic of the sea lion sitting on the book just above the pic of the sea lion and the hippo just above the pic of the hippo.
My kiddos have done this only one other time, but just that they thought of all of this on their own tickles my heart that they are learning some skills – one on one correspondence, sameness – I love it!

I love that they can surprise us with something like this. Making some unexpected connection is always such a proud Mumma moment. Hope he had lots of fun with it 🙂
The moments of incidental learning are so valuable. All those times you try to 'set up' a learning experience…and then one just happens before your very eyes!! xxxCate
Little smarty pants! Too cute!
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
My little one still loves all of his Little People toys. Thanks for sharing the fun your family had using Little People.
Have a happy week,
