Science Spectrum Again!!!!

This is the first time he has noticed the circuits. He loved making the light bulb light up or the ball spin!!!!

Potty Training

We used the 3 Day Potty Training Method, and he was almost completely potty trained after 3 days!!!  This method requires 3 days at home, complete commitment even during the night and naptime, and positive rewards, attitudes and comments!!  I was a little bit apprehensive, but he did great!!!
