Zoë seems to be experimenting a lot at the moment - with water :-/
She's not bothered about drinking it, she just wants to pour it from one cup into another and back again - and again, and again! Eventually there is none left - it's all over the table or the floor - then it's "more, more, waht, WAHT, MORE!" She seems completely fascinated by it.
I think this is an important part of her development. She's learning about the world around her - solids, liquids, gases, volumes, displacement. In fact a 16 month old girl's first physics lesson with a little cause and effect thrown in too.
This kind of sensory learning is fun for Zoë - although a little messy. Nino took her out when it was snowing recently, when the snow was quite thick, for a new experience. Zoë of course thought it was bubbles, like in the bath, but enjoyed the snow too. You can
read Nino's blog entry here.
