Jonah has figured out “present-opening.”
And as he’s opening, if he sees something that catches his eye… THAT IS WHAT HE IS GOING TO PLAY WITH.
All day.
You can get him to open other presents, but he is going back to “THING ONE” that caught his eye as soon as he’s done. He barely notices what the other presents are and often the thing just goes right on the shelf.
So we might try to switch it up this year, (we’ll see how Jonah feels about it)
If we spread the “present- openings” out over the week, we might see more interest in things that would typically live in the shadow of the “preferred toy” of the moment.
Or he may just want to open them all… because sometimes, that’s the “fun” part.
We’ll see.
