Once we went for a puja at one of our friend's place. There were kids of his age and also 3 or 4 years older ones as well. Avyaya chose to play with this baby girl who was few months older. And they were running all over the place. From one sofa to other to table and so on. They took one apple each and started eating. Neither of them looked at their parents. Then the older kids started playing and they took Avyaya with them. They were running in the corridor making him run as well. I was worried that he might get tired and start crying so with that though I went out and so him happily running and with the kids and kicking ball as well. At dinner time I had to drag him to the table. The other kds insisted that aunty we will feed him here . Don't worry and all. Nice!! But my naughty one will keep on playing forgetting about the food.
It was a pleasant experience for me. As I was also happy and relieved to realize that Avyaya is a friendly kid and he doesn't need coaxing to mingle with other children. Where I stay, there are no children of his age. I think I should do something about it....
