From the letter of mum

Dasha is very creative person. She adores drawing by paints, wax pieces of chalk, and especially something badly washed off (the handle, a felt-tip pen). And she doesn’t limit flight of the creative imagination by a sheet of paper. Any surfaces approach for it. But most of all she likes to be engaged in a body art. She goes quite often dark blue, red or green — she chooses color under mood. And it is possible to creep to mum and something to draw on her. It is very cheerfully!

Also Dasha likes to dance. We switch on for her children’s songs from cartoon films. Darya is turned and waves a dress hem, shows «small lamps».

She loves to play lately with dolls, feeds them for fun, rolls in a carriage, bathes, and puts to bed. In general, though she lags behind contemporaries physically because of the illness of Dasha (when contemporaries with might and main ran, jumped, swarmed up ladders on a platform, we only started to do the first steps, have gone in 1 year and 8 months), in the intellectual plan, in my opinion, she doesn’t lag behind coevals, and some even surpasses.

Dasha loves and logic games: puts a mosaic with pleasure, puzzles. In general, she is the versatile person. But her hobby is to behave like a hooligan! To disembowel all cases, to filch from a table a bread loaf, gnaw off all crusts, and pick up holes in a crumb, both etc. and etc.
