When Ethan was two, before we entered the world of autism, I signed Ethan up for some toddler football classes. It didn’t go well! He thought the hall it was held in was fantastic and would run all over the place at the wrong times. He also didn’t understand the concept of kicking the ball and would spend the whole time running over to them and picking them up.
Recently Ethan has been playing football with his grandad and I have seen comments in his nursery ‘to and fro’ book mentioning that Ethan has been kicking a ball. I have yet witnessed his new football skills, but last Sunday I was able to see them for myself.
He really did keep his grandad on his toes!
Well done Ethan and Grandad, this so reminds me of my Dad playing with my eldest at the same age, it is lovely to see them come together like this over a simple kick around with a ball. Lovely photos, I wish I had the same, only photos in my memory now. thank you for reminding me and sharing on Country Kids
I’m glad you enjoyed reading. He does enjoy his time with his grandparents, I shall remember to keep taking lots of photos x
Ethan and his grandad look like they’re having a fantastic time! Quite the superstar 🙂 x
They were, I couldn’t keep up!
Way to go Ethan!! That’s fantastic! I love it when you can see the progress that they do 🙂
Thank you, he really has come on. A year ago he couldn’t even kick the ball :0)
Woohoo…. I know that you are linking this post to Country Kids, however, I would say that it could also be posted under #amazingachievements 🙂
I think I will ;0)
That’s lovely! You must be so proud of him. Love that he’s wearing an appropriate Tshirt for it too 🙂
I don’t think many 2 year olds get the concept of football. Pleased he’s enjoying it now tho x
Great pictures, they both look like they were really enjoying themselves.
Football is something that’s a tad popular in our house (!) but it’s great for co-ordination and fun.
Hope E and his Grandad get more footie time before the weather turns 🙂 #SSAmazingAchievements
