New Series

 Started watching the episodes of Mr. Beast.

The Bureau of Magical Things

 New TV Series that the boy has started watching.

Roots ICL

The boy participated in the Roots Inter Center League (ICL) Football matches, and it has been a good learning experience. His team finished 6th out of 8 teams. He has been slowly easing off the Minecraft youtube videos. The audio is extremely annoying with the constant "tak tak" sound and the squealing voices.

New Series

 The Mandalorian - New Series watching

The boy no longer wants me to wash his hair and has become shy of walking around without clothes. Growing up...

Phineas and Ferb

And the boy has taken a liking to this show now.

Star Wars Crazy phase

It continues for now :-)

Dr S visit and Vaccination

To be on the safer side we decided to get the boy checked by Dr S for his ear pain in the night. 

Dr S examined his ears and found it clean. He thinks it could be because of some imbalance and suggested steaming once or twice a week and asked the boy to practice pranayam daily.

I had some questions on the above Immunization Timetable that the Dr had and that is when he suggested the Meningococcal Vaccination to prevent Meningitidis. The boy got a shot effective against some or all of the following types of meningococcus - A, C, W-135, and Y. He was anyway due for a shot next year. Initially he was hesitant but the Dr gently coaxed him and the boy was surprised when it got done quickly.

After that we visited my mother for lunch and the boy had his share of  TV (Grizzy & the Lemmings serial), laughing loudly as usual. It did not bother him that it was in Tamil :-)

Star Wars

The boy has been officially introduced to Star Wars and he just doesn't seem to get enough of it.

The movie series, the animated series, he is watching bits of it daily. And tantrums mean no screen time apart from school / football. 

Family Visit and a new Series

My mother came down to meet us and we all went (including the reluctant boy) to meet my uncle who was suffering from muscle paralysis. The boy sat quietly in a corner with his mask on and made minimal conversation. He just wanted to be out of there. All older and nobody of his age.

Once back home, after lunch he quickly got back to this new series which he has been hooked to - Just Add Magic 

Laptop

 When did I have access to a laptop? A good 6 years after I started working. 

And the boy? In Grade 2. Well versed with Zoom, knows how to Annotate, want to set a virtual background, loves Ninjago (started watching the series seriously this year) and a lot of reading using Raz-kids and British Council Library online.
