kodak moment: the day inigo wished to become a pedicab driver

i've already blogged about inigo's pretend plays here. i thought it will stop when he turned four but i was wrong as the more he's into imagining things lately and he uses different media to make them close to reality. the megabloks still remain as one of his favorite toys and it's quite amusing to see him that after watching a tv program (mostly in playhouse disney channel since it's the only channel i allowed him to watch) he'd immediately rush to their play room and play with his blocks to copy what he saw in tv.

he's also very fascinated with how some things around him operate. one time while we were driving along the streets of makati the pedicab caught his attention and as soon as we got back home the kiddo assembled his own pedicab using his own bicycle and one of our dining chairs. i was doing something upstairs when he called me and showed his own pedicab, complete with roof! hehe.

when i asked what he wished to be when he grow up, inigo quickly answered, "i want to drive a pedicab!" :D

guess what he did to connect his bicycle to the chair?

inigo used my skip rope to tie his bike to the sidecar, este, chair

 

kodak moment : inigo played hopscotch

thanks to special agent oso, inigo was introduced to hopscotch or piko. it was one sunny afternoon when out of the blue, inigo told his daddy that he wanted to try it as he saw how it's being played in playhouse disney channel. jude obliged to his wish and drew the 'course' in the parking area outside our apartment. we picked a small rock to serve as inigo's pato. it was fun watching him hopping and skipping as i never thought the game which i loved to play when i was a kid will be now played by my own. and i was happy as well that my son is interested with outdoor games like hopscotch since most of the kids now are alien to this kind of activities.

now only if he has a playmate to enjoy the game with... :(

uh-oh... missed again!

"go back now and get your pato" - mommy
