mirror

Hi Sibyl,

You haven't seen my mirror yet. There was a bigger one at River
Gardens that you liked, and you wanted to know what was behind
it. Mine is smaller, and you can turn it around. Have a look.

Love,

Nana


kangaroos and koalas

Hi Sibyl,

We saw some animals from Australia when we went to the zoo together. Do
you remember the kangaroos and the koalas. Maybe you have seen them again
with Mom and Pop. Here they are.

I liked seeing you with your word cards. So I made some more, and I will
send them to you. Some are here in this video.

Love,

Nana

Special truck

Hi Sibyl,

One of the new word cards I made for you is truck. Do you know of a special
kind of truck that stops often and makes a lot of noise?

Love,

Nana

Hi Sibyl,

Four at the zoo

Hi Sibyl,

Now I'm going to show you three kinds of animals that live at the zoo. First
there's a monkey. Then there are two lions, both sleeping. Then there is
the rhinoceros.

Here they are.

Love,

Nana

Penguins

Hi Sibyl,

The penguins in the zoo are really fun to watch. Do you remember that

Here they are!

Peacock

Hi Sibyl,

Now I'm going to show you the peacock that stopped to open its tail for us. Do
you remember this? The peacock can make lots of noise.

How have you been doing with your math cards?

Love,

Nana

Owl

Hi Sibyl,

Here's a video clip of the owl we saw at the zoo. There was another one, too,
a small one in a window, and you will see that in the long video I'm sending you,
Mom and Pop tomorrow.

Love,

Nana


Bears

Hi Sibyl,

Do you remember the bears at the zoo? There are two kinds there: brown bears
and polar bears. They all like the water, just as you do.

Have a look.

Love,

Nana

Tigers

Hi Sibyl,

Do you remember the tigers in the zoo? The two young tigers were
splashing in the water and pretending to fight. Their mom was watching
them. Here they are again.

I'll be back with more zoo video in the morning. I've been working on
a long video for your Mom and Pop.

Love,

Nana


Big hat

Hi Sibyl,

I want to show you more video from the zoo. But first you must see
my hat. It's very big. Grandpa Charlie bought it for me in France,
and I use it in the garden.

I miss you very much.

Love,

Nana

Horse bell

Hi Sibyl,

Do you remember my cow bell? What if I put it on my wooden horse?

Love,

Nana

The horse

Hi Sibyl,

Did you know that I have a wooden horse I keep on my windowsill? Here
it is. You can play with it when you come here in August.

Love,

Giraffe!

Hi Sibyl,

Remember the baby giraffe in the zoo? Here's a video clip to show
what the baby giraffe is doing.

Love,

Nana

Hi again

Hi Sibyl,

It was so nice to see you last week in San Francisco. Didn't we have a lovely
time at Russian River. Grandpa Charlie and I like playing with you, and pushing
you on the swing.

We will see you again in August.

Love,

Nana
