show me how a piggy eats!

We had pizza tonight for dinner.  Hannah loves parmesan cheese on her pizza.  After she finished she picked up her plate and began licking the remaining cheese. I have no idea where she learned that...I usually don't do that, unless something is exceptionally yummy :)  By the way, if you haven't tried Kroger's take-and-bake pizza you MUST try it!  It's way better than any frozen or delivery pizza!



After dinner while Mark and I were cleaning up the kitchen, Hannah was playing with her Fridge Farm.  Here is what I found:



No big deal...until I looked more closely.  Before she started playing, each of the animals were correctly "matched" and lined up vertically.  She put the pig in the middle and then took the duck head and placed it in front of the pig and the duck bottom behind the pig bottom...and so forth and so on with the horse and cow.  I don't know what it means or if it means anything at all, but I think it is pretty cool that she lined up everything like that without any guidance!  Perhaps she is starting to understand the concept of "order".

It's possible she learned the plate licking thing from me or Jim ;) I LOVE the last picture, before I read what you wrote, I saw what she did and I think that's amazing! And I love the fact that she has a huge grin on her face along with the pizza sauce...too cute.

Um yes! I also did not read what you wrote until after I looked at that last picture and that is AMAZING!! Hannah is so smart!

I think that's pretty smart too. I would say that she made a pattern. That's a very hard concept for some kids to grasp. Also, patterns are a standard in the Kindergarten ing Georgia, so look out! Here comes Hannah! I love that take and bake pizza too! It's awesome. We had it Friday night! Yummy!

I don't know what happened to my comment - I meant it's a Kindergarten standard in Georgia.
