It took 10 days -- from September 12, when we bought knock-off magnetic building toys in Guangzhou, to today, September 22, for HeHu to go from one-dimensional arrangement to full fledged multi-level three-dimensional building.
The first days were arranging -- setting tiles out in curved lines. Snapping them together in a stack for storage, then arranging in more pleasing and complex ways. Those arrangements evolved each day. Then there were towers of flat stacked tiles. Last night he built a sort of Stonehenge, independently. This morning he began to build towers with tiles clicked into place as rectangular prisms.
It was like something clicked into place for him.
It's 23 minutes after bedtime and we are falling asleep but he is still building.
What other leaps and bounds does our smart, determined little guy have in him?
