word games

Jonah's vocabulary is exploding. He's now even able to play with language. Today we went to our usual weekly story time at the library. There Jonah met another boy named Harry. Since Jonah learns names quickly these days, he called the boy by his name and was later able to reminisce about interacting with Harry. We were "talking" about Harry when suddenly Jonah said "strawberry." I laughed and replied: "No, not strawberry; Harry at the library." Jonah laughed and repeated: "Strawberry." I repeated my answer. He then wanted to hear the joke again: "Strawberry?" He requested to hear the same joke dozens of times and laughed hysterically each and every time. That was our first funny word game. Jonah's growing up so fast!
