Making friends - 18months old

Zo Ee at 18month 2week old. (24/10/2009)

My little Zo Ee has been seen trying to make friends with other kids, especially those older than her. Little Zo Ee has been doing these since 15-months old, trying to make eyes contact with other little kids , bending over or lowering her body to look others in their faces, before giving them her friendly smile.

Zo Ee tried to make friend with this older boy.


Today (Zo Ee's first trip to the Sentosa Island), Zo Ee was not only seen making eyes contact and offering her friendly smile to these little kids playing at this fountain but she was trying to make conversation with them too; by naming the colour of their shirts, eg "green" or naming those pictures on their shirts, eg. "penguin" or "car" while pointing at them with her little finger or trying to tell them, "trees, flowers" while pointing at the trees or flowers nearby. Mummy can see that little Zo Ee is trying very hard to communicate in her own way, hoping to make some new friends . Unfortunately, she rarely gets any response from other kids, whom either still lacking in speaking or communicating skills.
