Samuel is now over 2 1/2 years old and continues to be a busy little boy. Here is a summary of a typical week for Samuel.

Monday

My Mummy is usually working so I spend the day with my Nana and Grandad. I am beginning to move around a lot more so my Daddy brings my playpen for me to play in.
For my dinner I usually have fish fingers, sausages or sausage rolls. When my Daddy finishes work, he picks me up and we go and meet Mummy from work.

Tuesday

09:00 to 09:30 - Speech Therapy with Lee at the Briary School.
10:00 to 12:00 - SNAAPS at Windchimes, Herne Bay.
 

Wednesday

Today at 09.30 to 12.00 I go and see Jane, Steph, Mandy and Hazel at 'Honey Bears', this is where I get to play with a small group of children like me, without their Mummy and Daddy's being around. Its held at Children's Assessment Centre, at Kent & Canterbury Hospital in Canterbury.
Its great fun - we sing songs and go in the soft play area.

Thursday

Today I go to the main stream toddler group in the morning at Joy Lane, Whitstable. Its very busy, with lots of children running around. One day I hope I can run round with them.

In the afternoon its back to 'Honey Bears' just like Wednesday morning.

Friday

Today I go shopping with Mummy, but in the afternoon, Lucy my Portage lady comes to see me, we have great fun playing games and singing songs. Sometimes Lucy makes me work hard which is not always fun.

Once a month I go to a Hearing Impaired group run by Rosie (Teacher of the Deaf) and her husband John. I like John's guitar! We play games, have a snack and finish with a sing song. My Mum stays with me at this group and chats to the other Mum's while I play.

I also have regular appointments to ensure my Piedro boots fit properly as these will hopefully help me when I start walking.
