Peek-A-Boo

It is interesting how the littlest things amaze young children. You don't even need an expensive toy or gadget. With Joshua, all you need is a simple cloth, your hands, or a door.

Joshua's favorite game is Peek-A-Boo. He loves to play, and he has several different versions of the game. I bet you didn't know there were several versions of Peek-A-Boo. We throw a cloth of some sort on his head and say "where is Joshua"? He pulls the cloth off his head and we say "peek-a-boo. There he is" and Joshua smiles real big. Then, Joshua takes the cloth and puts it back over his head, and that is our cue to say "where is Joshua"? He then pulls the cloth off his head again waiting for us to say "peek-a-boo. There he is". This goes on and on. If we didn't stop, Joshua would probably be pulling the cloth up and down over his face all day. He never seems to get bored with it. This game can also be played when Joshua hides behind doors and then pops back in the door "peek-a-boo". The third game is with your hands. We will cover our eyes with our hands and play peek-a-boo. Joshua will then cover his own eyes with his hands and want to play. A lot of times, he will cover his face so that his eye is still peeking through so that he can really see. Joshua is quite the character.
