I first posted this tutorial in 2013. My son was 1 -1/2 years old and we were living in Tampa. I would find him with our pictures in his hands, pointing and saying “Da-Da”!! I soon learned to shuffle after him putting the frames up for safety and eventually I just put them away. Like most toddlers, he loved looking… View Post
