Exploring Our Children’s Potentials

Is it just Brie, or do your toddlers also love to put on shoes (and sandals), even when they’re at home?

Brie is now 2 years and 3 months old, and as far I can remember, she’s been into trying out shoes and sandals (hers and other people’s).

Since she’s about one year old, I think.

Other than her own, she’d go for my shoes, her dad’s, Anya’s, Vai’s, and even my friends’ and her friends’ shoes. You know, if we happen to have a playdate or something, and there are other shoes around =)

(Oh btw, she could put on her shoes, all on her own, since she’s about 14 months old)

She’d put her tiny feet into them, and walk around.

Sometimes, she pretends she’s going out to work in them.

“Brie pake sepatu, mau pegi kerja”, she’d say to me  (that’s Indo for ‘Brie puts on shoes, goes out for work’)

Other times, she tells me that she’s going out to play tennis (and grab her brother’s shoes and racket).

And she’d say, ‘Brie pake sepatu Koko Vai. Brie mau maen tenis” =)

Out of my three kids, I notice that Brie is the one most ‘interested’ in shoes and all kinds of footwear.

(Okay, our son, Vai, also liked shoes when he was a toddler. The difference is, instead of his feet, he liked to put shoes and sandals into his mouth! Like, seriously! Thank God he survived all the dirt and germs!)

And I can’t help but wonder sometimes, … if it’s just a thing with curious little toddlers.

Or is it more like, a girl thing?

What do you think?

Note:
In this post, Brie is walking around with her cute Pediped shoes in her hands.

Ccomfortable and pretty ballet flats, I thought =)
