A very recent trait that we have observed in our daughter is she wants to scale or climb everything, be it our refrigerator, window in our house or more recently the trees.
Until few months ago she was only restricted to Windows and Refrigerator, Pics below
But more recently when we went to a resort that happens to be within forest, her animalistic or Monkey instincts started overpowering her. Now she wants to climb a tree.
She initially started with a small tree - Pic Below
But after gaining little confidence she selected a Big Tree that she wants to scale.
I was initially afraid of her curiosity, but on seeing her confidence and persistence I did not want to cut her wings.
I gave her a little support where she was getting little unbalanced, but to my surprise she managed to pull it off and hang like a Leopard.
She got scared after reaching a certain height and wanted me to pull her down. Well now i was stubborn to not get her down and rather let her enjoy her fear.
