Ben's First Exersaucer Experience

Today, after I got home from work (really, I agree with my students, why not have the whole week off from school for Thanksgiving - the college students at the U of Illinois do!), we had Benjamin try the exersaucer that Amie and Doug brought for Benjamin to use. It was a lot of fun to see what Benjamin would do with it - he was quite interactive with it. He started with the book that makes noise as you turn the pages (see video of this below) and then started grabbing at the various other toys. He got a little frustrated when he couldn't reach certain things and his legs didn't seem quite able to support himself standing for a long time, but overall I think he is very ready for this and it will be fun to see what draws his attention.

After the exersaucer, Benjamin took a quick ride on his pony.
