Yes yes I know all mothers say this, but my Joshua IS truley amazing. He has been allowed to play games on the computer for quite some time now and its always the same thing, you end up having to move the mouse for him as he just did not get it, have to restart the game or PC all the time as he clicks everywhere and all goes haywire, but then he is only 2 1/2 so that's okay. This week we got him a new Noddy game - it is aged 3-6 but I know he is Noddy crazy at the moment so I thought I would get it for him and sit and play it with him. 
He has learned how to put the PC on and wait for it to boot up, too cute he sits patiently and says to himself "Wait.....Wait....Wait..." till its booted. And finally he learned mouse control, amazing. I then showed him where to start the game from the quick start bar so it only requires one click not a double click. He does it all on his own now - and amazingly even navigates the menus to his favourite activity and plays all on his own for hours at time. I though he was just clicking and not actually getting what was going on but this morning I watched him. He started the PC, then the game, navigated to the game where they show you some objects that you need to collect, then you have to drive a car, stop when a busser sounds and then pick up the object they showed you in the beggining and put them in the car, then drive on and at the end of the track match the objects to the shapes where the object needs to be placed. And he did it all on his own, I AM SO PROUD. My little baby is so clever.
