The remote controlled helicopter first came to our house when Cam brought his over to fly. Joe and Duncan loved it, but Ewan.... not so much. Sweet little thing cried every time the others flew the helicopter, so at first it was only whilst Ewan was napping that the helicopter would come out to fly.
Duncan loves watching the helicopter fly as you can see. At first, Ewan cried and cried, then he tried to say he liked it, but his whole little body was trembling in fear as he forced out the words, "me wike it." Bless his little heart.
For a little while, Duncan and Daddy would fly the helicopter while I tried to distract Ewan with something else, but eventually, he really did warm up to it and his first question of the morning when I went to get him out of bed was wondering if the helicopter was charged so it would be ready to fly.
Now he loves picking it up when daddy crashes it----oh, I mean, when daddy lands it gently and turns it off for a moment so that the boys get a chance to pick it up.
A great way to start and end the day!
