Learning to Use Tools

For a long time now Matilda has been using a little chair to reach when helping me in the kitchen. All of a sudden this week she discovered that she can take the chair other places to reach all sorts of things. It was a fun realization to watch her make. It also makes us wonder what was the limiting factor before that she hadn't considered taking the chair around? So far she hasn't gotten into too much trouble with her newfound "height" and spends most of her time turning lights rapidly on and off.
