Weekend Reflections: My Little Princess Tiger Girl
Tiger girl is 26 months old this November. I’ve seen a drastic change in her since she turned two. Nope I ‘m not talking about the terrible twos and toddler tantrums but her physical and mental progression. I consider two years old as a really magical age for a child.
Within these two month she has progressed from speaking in simple sentences to complex sentences. She can hold her own two way conversation with me and is able to tell exactly what she wants. Tiger girl is also singing more different nursery rhymes in both English and Mandarin. This little girl simply loves singing and will break out into songs whenever we are travelling together in the car. Sometimes she would request that I sing along with her while on other occasions she would be singing alone.
Tiger girl is able to recognize alphabets and simple words. She can also spot and recognize numbers from 1-20. It amazes me when she suddenly starts pointing to words or numbers that she sees around here when we out and loudly exclaims “That’s a Number 5!” or ” That’s an Apple!!” Her learning has accelerated a lot these few months and she seems to have grown up and matured a lot since hitting the big 2.
My little girl has her own fashion preference and would pick out her own attire if we were going out. She has a liking for items in pink or purple and loves Care bears and Hello Kitty. She also loves playing trains and guns with her brothers and the three of them can hole up in the boys room for hours playing together.
Do you notice a drastic change in your child after he/she turned two?
Join us this week in our weekend reflections linky and link up your highlights for the week.

Way to go, Tiger girl! With the progress you’re making, I’m sure you’ll reach your developmental milestones way ahead of time. 😀

Wow! Congratulations in teaching her both English and Mandarin! I took up Mandarin in College and I’m amazed with the language. I wish I had practiced it more so I can still speak and understand basic Mandarin.

Mine are grown now but I know that each year brings its own differences. Your little one is adorable.

Two is a great age and one of my favorites. They are such sponges and learn so much when they are two. You can’t wait for them to talk, then wonder if they have an off switch.
Enjoy this precious time!

I really did see a huge difference in my little one (she is 2 and a half now) and even more so as she nears 3. She talks non-stop and is just more “mature” if that makes sense. It’s nice and sad at the same time! She’s growing up.
Your little one is just adorable.

Wow, she’s really progressed a lot. My nephew is 23 months today and he doesn’t really talk yet, but he tries to. Looking forward to watching him develop his language skills as well. 🙂

I used to get momfever at around this time because the kids grow so much and suddenly they are not babies anymore 🙁

Kid’s behavior changes a lot while they are growing up. Seen it with my daughter, now with my 1 year old son.

That’s great! Wait until she spells out all the signs and words that she’ll see.
