I just love when they start telling stories! S will now play with his toys and make up voices for them - too funny (and rather illuminating as to how we must sound to him!).

We have stories where S has requests about what's going to be in the story too... it started when he woke up with nightmares about things he saw (probably shadows), one of whom was the Zig Zag Dragon. So I told him, "Oh, no, the Zig Zag Dragon is a friendly dragon! Do you want to know what he did when he came to visit one day....?"

Now the Zig Zag Dragon is our best friend, and takes us on trips to see Grandma and Grandad, and through magic doors in the cubby house - it's so much fun.
