Paragraph 2

Since my son has been in daycare he has become better at a few different things. To start off, his vocabulary has become more developed. Now he uses words he did not use before and tries to repeat everything that is said. Another result of his being in daycare is that he can interact with other children better. He has learned to share his toys and to play in a group with the other children. One more good thing is the fact that he is becoming more and more self-reliant. Now he wants to try to do everything on his own – dressing and washing himself, tidying his room. I am really glad that I decided to put my son in daycare, for the benefits have been great.
