Deck the Halls
December 13, 2009 8:24 pm UncategorizedTo help get Dougie into the Christmas spirit, we decided to let Dougie help decorate the tree. We divided the ornaments into breakable and “not breakable” (apparently, a toddler can break just about anything) and let Dougie hang the not breakable ornaments.
It started off well, he picked mostly ones he felt were “pokey little puppies.” He needed a few lessons on how to work the hooks but he caught on fast enough. What he didn’t seem to get was that ornaments would look pretty all over the tree rather than just in that single location.
Once Dougie went to bed, we managed to add a few more to fill out the tree. There is still a very dense area where Dougie worked his toddler magic. He has since started the process of removing ornaments.
