Bibi's 2nd Birthday

Bibi turned two on Feb. 25, 2008.

UNIQUE WORDS: 89 (on this video)

TOTAL VOCABULARY: 200+

CONCEPT OF COLOR
Bibi definitely understands the concept of color. She was never taught to say "green grape." She added the green herself because they ARE green. I guess she doesn't know they are supposed to be called "white grapes." Silly bird.

The word "carriage" heard in the video is most likely a combination of "carrot" and "orange." Bibi really likes oranges, and says "orange" frequently. When working on her colors, we use a variety of objects, both known and unknown, for each color. Saying "carriage" might indicate that Bibi knows the carrot is orange. Bibi can also identify red and blue on command...if she is in the mood.

INTERSPECIES COMMUNICATION
Bibi knows the names of the other pets. Sweet d, is the Golden Retriever puppy watching Bibi eating asparagus on the video. Bibi learned her name in one day. Stella is Bibi's favorite cat, and Bibi often meows at her or calls her by name whenever Stella walks by.
