Ira dances!

Sorry things have been a bit slow on the Ira blog! It's been full on! But here are some videos I took some weeks back of Ira dancing. It's neat to see him exploring moving his body to music a bit more these days - he has some awesome dance moves!

Ira's learning stories

Here are some learning stories of Ira over the last week or so! playing hide and seek, swinging on the monkey bars and wearing the city kids high heels!! Enjoy :)

Ira sings

As like Rowans post Ira is little bit stage fright when it comes to performing on the camera. Knowing that Ira is very vocal during sleep time i thought I would would try take a video of him singing with out him watching :) here it is!! then he turned his head and spotted me and asked for socks off!! hehe but least you can hear him!
This is a song the older children have been learning at busy tiger time and they as well as the teachers often sing it around the centre. I have been doing it alot with Ira with names in particular Mum, Dad, Edie, Alex, Nika, Rowan, Abbey, Katy, Nikki. He did the Xray one all on his own Heard it for the first time :)

Here is a video of Ira singing one of the songs from Kapa Haka. It is quite hard to get Ira to "perform" when there is a camera in your hand - he seems to get a bit of stage fright. Here he had been singing before and then forgot that I had a camera at all... please excuse my singing at the start of the video! 

Ira helping out!!

Ira on the bike

Here is a video I grabbed this week of Ira on the CK bike. He has come a long way! He is currently mastering his ability to turn corners. He is beginning to understand - but often will get stuck in a corner. Rather than try and go around any obstacle he will rather drop the bike and move on to something else
