Our First Story

Adhav likes books in general. He was 14 or 15 months old and he was getting exposed to "Winnie the Pooh" characters. I had taken a book from the "Winnie the Pooh" series from the local library (not sure about the exact book name). I would have read the story quite a few times and we both liked it very much. So even after we returned the book to library, we recite the story during bedtime, even now and we both like this one the best. This is a more interactive story and it goes something like this.
In 100 acre woods, Pooh bear was doing exercise. How did he do?
"Adhav will do exercise putting his hands up and down."
He became hungry and his tummy started sounding --
Grrrr Grrrr
So what did he eat then -
Aney (Its honey)
How did he eat the honey?
Mum mum mum
That time what came near the window?
Aney Bee (Honey Bee)
Pooh bear followed Honey bee and where did he go?
Tree
yeah there was lot of honey on the top of tree. And Pooh started climbing the trees. When he was about to take the honey, tree branch broke and how did Pooh bear fall down?
Mamaal (He tries for the word Damaal meaning thud)
Then he thinks and got idea to get a Balloon from Christopher Robin. He gets the balloon and goes up near the honey. When about to take the honey, bee finds out Bear and chases him. That time he falls again - ?
Mamaal
Pooh Bear is hungry and plans to goto whose house?
Abbit (It is rabbit, he is still bad at R)
What does Rabbit give for lunch?
Aney
How did he eat it?
Mum mum mum
His tummy became big after eating and how big was it?
(Streches both the hands to show big tummy)
Then Pooh bear says bye bye to rabbit and when he is about go out, his tummy is stuck in the door. Who is coming to see Pooh bear that time?
Owl
then
Donkey
Donkey's name?
Eeyore
then who else came?
Roo
Then all these people will pull Pooh Bear. And Rabbit will push him from inside. He will come out and he will fly into a hole in a tree. how did he come out?
Mamaal
What was there in the tree?
Aney
How did he eat it?
Mum mum mum
Pooh bear was very happy. Over
Done

He wont be satisfied with this story and there will be more sweet babblings before he sleeps finally ..
GoodNight thangam :)
