We introduced him to Play-doh last week sometime and he’s been sort of averse to actually touching the stuff for more than a second. Today he felt brave enough to poke it with his pokey little pointer finger. Of course, I had to praise the hell out of it and make it into a neat trick. I’m excited to try it again later!

[afternote: James claims that he saw and reinforced the poking first, so I thought to mention that there’s a good chance Tristan was practicing something he’d already learned. :D]
