Clara is 14 months. She is a steady walker and very coordinated. But she is still only 14 months.
A few days ago I put her on a bouncer-car thing in our toddler playground. I showed her how to hold on and rocked it back and forth. She like it but seemed worried and wanted to get off.
Today, she walked right over to it.
Me: "Clara, would you like to try this?"
Clara: "Esh."
I picked her up. She immediately grabbed the handles. I began to rock her back and forth and she yelled loudly and batted my hands away. I let go to see what would happen. Would she fall? Would she get scared?
Nope. She grabbed on and rocked herself wildly back and forth, laughing her head off. I even had time to snap a picture. Look how her feet don't even come close to reaching the footrests.
I am amazed how independent she is becoming.
