Mommy Says we Shouldn’t Play with our Food 

But Mommy is not Home Today.

Dog.  Kitty.  Would you Like to Help use Our New Cookie Cutters?

OK!  We Like Playing with Our Food!

I want the Bone!  OK!  I want the Fish!

The Dog and Bone are My Shapes!

And This Fish is For Me!

I Get the Bears!  ‘Cause I’m a Bear.

Has Anyone Done This Before?

I’ve seen Your Mommy Making Cookies.  I Think I Remember How This Works.

How do we do it Dog? 

Well, you Push Down on the Cookie Cutter. 

Like This! 

You ‘gotta Push REAL Hard!  Grrrr!!!!

Et voila!  C’est fini!

Look at my Orange Marmalade Bone!  

That Looked Easy, Dog!  

Now I’ll Try!  

PUSH!  Right, Dog?

Whoa!  Something’s not Right!

I don’t know Ryan… looks like you could use a Paw.

I think so Dog! 

Thank you!  

You’re welcome Ryan.  

We’re Doing It! 

You’re Working Well Together.  

Yeah!!!  

This is Fun, Dog!  

I wanna’ do mine next!  

Here goes!  

I did it!  

I cut out a Fish!  

Playing with our Food is Fun! 

I wanna’ do a Ducky next!  

What a nice Ducky!  

You’re doing Very Well, Kitty.  

I’ll press HARD all over.  

Marmalade!  It’s just Ducky!!  

I like my Ducky!  

Now I’ll do a Dog.  

I Like Marmalade ’cause it doesn’t Stick to the Roof of my Mouth!  

It’s a Radio! Is it a ‘real’ Radio, Daddy?

Yes. It is a real Radio, Ryan. – Listen

It is your very own Radio, Ryan.

Now you and Dog can listen to soft music in your bed before you fall asleep.

There’s More!

A really big Book! Mommy can read it with me!

Look! Someone made a mess here.

It’s a story about a Mouse, Ryan. It is a Mouse that gets loose in a House.

On every page of the book you have to Find the Mouse.

But you have to Find the Real Mouse – there are Lots of Mouse Objects –

but only one Real Mouse!

Look, Mommy! Look, Daddy! I caught the Mouse!

Ryan, we can read the book later. There are Games to play.

This game is called Pin-the-tail on the Donkey

I can do this, Daddy. It’s easy.

You have to put on this mask, Ryan. No peeking!

Daddy, this is Hard. I cant’t see. Did I do it o.k.?

Try again, Ryan. A little more to the right.

You did it!

Let’s all read your new Book together, Ryan. Dog can read along with us

Happy Birthday to you, Ryan. Happy Birthday to you.
