Instructions

I bought for Ricky about a year ago some paper dolls, hoping that this activity could be both fun and strengthen her cutting skills as well. Well, she make a complete disaster of the project. Recently I bought a new set, and this morning she took it out. After she had cut out one dress without the fold-over tabs, I caught her trying to glue the dress to the doll. After about five minutes of talking to her, and cutting out an outfit correctly to show her, it suddenly registered in her mind… to listen. I showed her how to do it (reminding her that one ALWAYS has to get instructions before starting things…). And she listened. GRIN.
