Having a ball together

It is interesting to watch the cousins’ relationship develop as they grow and mature. Levi and the twins recognize each other now as familiar and possibly even family. Interaction has increased dramatically without much verbal communication. The boys watch each other and move around the yard in a pack. Conflict is rare. One will engage an activity such as the slide and the others will follow. They have moved beyond parallel play, but have not yet fully engaged in interactive play activities such as pitch and catch. Once their verbal skills advance and physical skills become a little more developed, they’ll be organizing neighborhood ball tournaments.
