spanish

Yesterday we decided to practice speaking Spanish with Lily.  Elbert turned around to her, waved, and said, "Hola." to which Lily replied (and continued saying for about 5 minutes) "Bye Hola!"

Not sure she gets it ;)

  1. nice.

    I think her and Hayley would get along well at this stage. They seem to have the same sense of making words work for them.

  2. I was playing with Hayley yesterday and thought about Lily and her spanish... so I decided to see what Hayley would do with "hola" and "adios" instead of "hello" and "bye bye" (it was one of those toys where you twist/push/whatever and an animal pops out from behind a door and I was tired of peek-a-boo) and so I started saying "hola" when an animal popped out and she looked at me and said "no o la" time and time again... so then I tried the "adios" and she did the same thing "no ad os" .... it seems she's taking lily's side on determining when she'd like to learn new words.
