Wayne woke up and the first thing he muttered, eyes still closed, was Ben and Den. Trains from Thomas and Friends which he has been asking mommy to buy for him. And on another occasion, he muttered "ipad" in his sleep. Is this not addiction?
Every morning when he wakes up he goes to the living room to play with his many engines all laid out on the floor. And he bugs us for the ipad and iphone daily to watch youtube videos of Thomas and friends. Yep, no more apps, he has upgraded to the youtube which he of course realised offered him many many more videos compared to the apps.
So we've been trying to limit his access these days, which hasnt been too bad. We've managed to distract him with the many engines he has now, thanks to Xmas.
But on the other hand, all these Youtube videos hasnt been all bad. Wayne has picked up so many new words from the videos. He now talks mainly in "Thomas language". When you ask him to come to you, he'd go "Ready or not!" and run towards you. When he is pushing something, he goes "Push and puff and puff". He talks to his engines as he plays with them, and re-enacts scenes from the videos he has watched with his engines. And, he has even started to tell mommy bedtime stories all revolving around his trains. Good imagination, baby!
