Well, @AmazonUK , I've waited in for my delivery which needs a signature. I get an email saying no one was in to sign for it. Um - I WAS HERE, at the address, waiting. So - no parcel, and no chance of rearranging my time at home for the next few days. Grrrrr

Object permanence is the understanding that things continue to exist, even when they can’t be seen.
And it’s not an understanding your baby comes equipped with. Indeed, during the earliest months of life, if you remove a toy - for example - from your baby’s line of sight you’ll find they react as if it was never there in the first place.
In this case, out of sight means out of mind.
But that all begins to change, typically between 7-10 months.
This little guy - shared to IG by AFVofficial - has a clear sense of object permanence and shows us in two ways:
First with his astonishment over dad’s sleight of hand and then with his efforts to track - and seek out - the ball as it moves into dad’s other hand.
What a fantastic illustration of his developmental milestone.

Bought a pack of 5 socks from @sainsburys . Got home and there were only 4 pairs! I hope whoever took the 5th pair needs it more than me....

Reading a report produced for the C of E 30 years ago which talks about the importance of supporting youth workers & relationship with incumbent and PCC. With more funding enabling appointments it's essential we learn from when it goes wrong

It is time to reform how we view early education. Introduced by Elliot Steinberg (@SaulZaentz), keynote speaker Dr. Dan Wuori (@DanWuori) addresses the artificial divide between “childcare” and “education,” challenging policymakers to invest in early childhood as a critical developmental window. #ECLS26

On my way to @HamiltonWestEnd again feeling pretty smug. I bought my ticket last year for £23, before it was announced that @leslieodomjr would be appearing and seat prices rocketed! 4 seats left for today and they are all £500.
I'm in the very top back row, but I got a bargain!

If you go down to the newsagents today, and flick through a copy of @My_Weekly , you may well see me beaming out at you, talking about my volunteering with @BookmarkCharity charity.

There’s a type of commentary that’s grandly pessimistic, often misanthropic, that gathers inordinate amounts of praise for its ‘brilliance’ and clear-sightedness. I think it’s hard to question it without worrying you’ll be seen as naive.
