On the whole the weather has been pretty damn gorgeous for the past week or so, truly Autumnal. The best bit about this time of year is the light, it's so warm and is perfect for showing off the colours of the season crisply and beautifully. Forget PicMonkey (which feels like blasphemy coming from me), my favourite Instagram hashtag at the moment is #nofilter!

Sunday 7th October 2012 – 'Mummy' (281/366)

This is the first time The Boy's drawn a full picture of anyone, not just a face. He's also had a go at writing my name underneath. In the past he's drawn a face, but I've never suggested he draw a whole person before and I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome.

Mary Sheridan (the guru for stages of child development) identifies that a 3yr old child will draw a person with a head and usually indicate one or two other features or body parts. A 4yr old child will draw a person with head, legs and trunk, and usually some arms and fingers.

Most nursery or reception aged children will draw a head with arms and legs coming off it, as to them they are the most important body parts. A body is surplus to requirements at this age and usually is missing. However, The Boy has drawn one on this picture of me. Interestingly though, my arms are coming from my head showing that he's not quite realised how everything connects or that the body has a part to play.

We've got twelve weeks left and we'll be wrapping the project up; seems like only yesterday that we were starting.
