Before heading over today, Mrs. Olson explained the expectations of the day wonderfully. She let me know that I'd be arriving when little Asher would still be napping and that he may need a little time to warm up. He was a little sad to hear that mom was about to leave but I had brought out and set up some activities including a chalk paint set I had from home where we painted on a canvas different colors and made name art!
After this, Asher and I had a potty break and proceeded to play downstairs where we played with some of his toy cars/airplanes at the table. We had fun playing together and I found that it was rather easy to make him giggle just being silly or making silly sounds while playing with the toys in my hands (airplane sound for an airplane, ambulance noise, etc.) which he would sometimes mimic and seems to really enjoy learning new words and phrases. He is considerate in the sense that if you fall or were to bump your knee he asks if you are okay. He gets really excited about doing fun things and may leave the room abruptly but will pause if you let him know you need a second to catch up. And he's real helpful to show you where things are if he wants something such as a snack, high up book on a shelf, his tablet, etc.
I really had a fantastic time today and look forward to next time!
