AJ was in a supermarket with his aunt and grandmother the other day when a lady and her trolley was blocking his way. By the way, AJ is a 2.5 years old boy. "Excuse Me..." he said at the top of his voice and waited. The lady got startled and glanced behind. There's no one there. Then she glanced down and saw a smiling AJ there. Her response was "Oh... pandainya!" (translated as: Oh.. so smart) AJ then continued to happilly explore the supermarket aisle.
The "Excuse Me" Game
AJ & I played Excuse Me game when he was about 1.5 years old. When he walks around the house, I will stand in front of him and encourage him to say Excuse Me... with every Excuse Me the path is unblocked. Then after a while, Excuse Me comes natural to him.. Next will be to encourage him to say Thank you. You can block the path or door or tv or the computer. But not so often that it will irritate the kids..
