She could find her head, ears, eyes, nose, belly button, feet/toes.
She knows signs for a few other things, and will do them if you say them (or if she wants to): bath, bear, dirty, train, friend, wait, eat... many of these from the frequently-played Signing Time DVDs.
MOVEMENTS...Eloise twirls, leading with one arm; walks forwards and backwards. She dances, crouches, and raises her arms if you say: "Arms up." She points and she clenches. She flips her lower lip. She finds things and gives them to us.
OTHER STUFF...She stares. She furrows her forehead and looks at you crossly if she is irritated or confused. She asks for certain DVDs, books, toys, food. She has preferences. She blows kisess & will also give you a kiss if you ask. When she is excited she’ll babble a blue streak. For example, she has loads to say when we are at the beach. She also babbles as she reads a book on her own. She'll put her mouth into a little 'o' when she hears a loud noise or hears the computer go on, which means she could watch a DVD. We sing together, kind of harmonize our 'ahhhhhh' sounds; it's quite fun.
She loves items of values... keys, credit cards... she disassembles Ian's wallet every chance she gets, strewing a trail of business cards about the house.
