Learning/Development
He doesn't know how to be angry without yelling or hitting these days.

He really loves numbers and counting. Kimmo noticed that when playing a board game, after a roll of the dice he can usually do the addition quickly without stopping to count (e.g. when he rolls and 5 and a 6, he immediately says "yksitoista" and moves 11 spaces).
Language
Not much new here; Finnish still much stronger than English. Lumi usually speaks to him in Finnish.

4 - 7.6 was "futis koulu". the first day he went and was excited to put on the new gear, but he didn't want to join. he sat on Kimmo's lap the whole time and did not participate. There was not much improvement on the following days. He enjoyed watching the drills and trying a few on the sidelines.
17.6 he wanted to try the pedal bike, but the tire was flat.
Social

Health (eating, sleeping, etc)
He switched to the "big kid" room for nap time at päiväkoti. This means that he doesn't have as much space to lie down and he isn't really expected to sleep.
He likes to sleep with the fan on at home.
He loves apple juice, and sometimes we can get him to branch out to pear juice or a blend with apple. He didn't want to drink the black apple juice, though. (https://www.valio.fi/mediafiles/970d1fac-e81b-4784-bd19-91ea7a66fe9e?Width=300&mimeType=image/jpeg)

He loves to wear a cap and sunglasses on sunny days.
He especially loves the adult size "Party in the USA" baseball cap that Andrea and Andy brought.
I am not sure I'd try that black one, either! Good, and thanks for reinstating me!
