Every wednesday Tobias goes to the daycare. I take him in the morning but before I do that I write in his notebook. This is a way the daycare communicates with parents when the children can't tell the stories for themselves (which means until the children are about 18 months old). It is a nice way to communicate, because not only does it help the parents and the daycare to communicate, it also creates a sort of a diary. So, I try my best to keep them posted on his developments every week and so do they (of course we also communicate in person... :-)). Yesterday they wrote that Tobias had eaten a slice of bread using a fork. That was hard to believe or imagine and kind of cool. So today I thought I'd try that at home..... As you can see here it worked fine, although I had to cut the bread and prick the pieces on the fork. Also I had to make sure the plate with the bread on it was out of reach so he would not grab a piece with his free hand... I do think he likes eating this way, but I am not sure if he likes the bread better than he does his oatmeal, but then again "a change of food makes one eat" (which is a literal translation of a dutch saying...) so, we'll keep trying different things.
