{The Ordinary Moments} #30 - Toddler At Work

2/2/2015

Shhh. 

Nice and quiet, not too loud.

There's a Toddler At Work. Come closer and take a look:
Sometimes the Work happens in an instant, the purpose of which can only be understood by said Toddler.
Peppa Pig stickers
Sometimes we catch the Toddler red-penned.
Toddler stamps
Sometimes the purpose of the Work is altogether more useful, and we can but marvel and this very no-longer-a-baby, determined and skillful little person in front of us.
Toddler peeling an egg

Sometimes the Toddler Works on essential life skills (though, on this rare occasion, thankfully without a life-threatening implement).
Playdough
Sometimes the Toddler's Work involves great discoveries...
Toddler painting
... which may result in pretty pictures...
Painting
... or alternatively a blue smurf who needs a bath. 
Finger paint
Whatever the case may be, is there any sight more lovely than the Toddler about his Ordinary Work? I don't think so. 

Come say hello:

Oh I love this post. A toddler's work is never done! Love him randomly drawing on his legs, where do they get the ideas for things?! x

It's lovely watching them work away and listening to them chat to themselves whilst doing it. My little lady quite likes putting stickers on as plasters x

Ooh that sounds like fun too - we haven't discovered plasters over here yet (lazy mummy)!

Oh I love this - especially the painting himself - my girls do that all the time only it's called "being Aborigines" in our house, or alternatively Masaai Warriors (thank you nursery for those two bits of knowledge) - ah well it all comes off in the bath!!

Oh bless him, look at him concentrating so hard. It's a hard life being a toddler isn't it? ;)

Oh, I don't think there is. I find it endlessly fascinating to watch my son and try to work out what he's thinking as he goes about his busy day! Gorgeous photos x
