Dd will pick up any object and use them as "figures" so she can act out scenes from her mind. She also does the voice for the dog and her little sister. I wouldn't change her quirkiness for the world.

My daughter has her own sense of style and is very clear about what she wants to wear (even though none of it remotely matches and she ends up looking like a pre-school version of Zandra Rhodes). It's just not worth arguing!

Thank you my favourite was when he started dancing to the church bells he heard whilst walking through town!

Love that Molly

He dances. All day. Doesn't matter what music there is he finds a way to dance to it. Even in his car seat he nods his head.

And the most beautiful thing is the joy on his face as he does so. He has special needs and struggles to make himself understood but doesn't need any words to dance.

How do I help him? I join in.

My four year old son is heavily in to my little pony to the point of asking for my little pony PJ's which he now has. Were happy to accommodate especially at this age, it won't do any harm. So he even has a my little lunchbox and umbrella.

DS has a flair for the dramatic and will come out with the funniest vocabulary that he has picked up from poems, books and the TV. When arriving at a friends house, when she opened the door, he announced that he 'was knocking on the old inn door for ages'. He's got a great set of excuses for not doing what he is told. He couldn't walk to nursery because he had become 'stranded', he couldn't clear the table because he was 'as heavy as a stone' and he wouldn't put his socks on because they were the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. Slightly wearing but also very funny.

Through dress up and role play - hilariously creative oufits.

Dd who is 9 and I suspect has aspergers wears whatever the heck she likes, shorts with bright leggings and a floaty top. The brightest trainers that she can find.

They have uniform at their school so out of school her clothes are chosen by her and are bright and cheerful, they don't necessarily match but they make her feel good.

DS2 has ASD.

He's at the stage where he's realising he's different. He's heard other children calling him 'weird' for insisting on wearing his Pokemon hat all the time or adoring fluffy toys at slightly older than usual. I could go on.

But he's decided to own it. Because we talk a lot about 'weird'. Because now he knows that 'weird' is also magical, different, unique, never-before-done and, in exactly his words 'no one else quite like me in the world'. And he's happy like that.

My daughter sings. She sings when she wakes (and wakes us up with her rendition of 'we wish you a merry Christmas') we love it!

DS is only 19 months and expresses himself through crazy dancing. Spin, spin, spin, shakey, shakey, shakey!

Walking is not good enough for my DD anymore! She has to hop. Everywhere. She's only 17 months! Makes me wonder what else we'll be in store for..

DS1 won't dress up and would rather be the o ly person at school in uniform on mufti day!

DD has just discovered jokes1 so she sometimes comes out with the most utter nonsense and follows it up with "I'm just joking you Mummy!"

The more difficult times are where her tales are reasonably plausible. We are starting to have trouble distinguishing what's what. DD has no sympathy she always thinks her jokes are obvious and if we believe them we're playing along. Confusing times in our house right now

My 2 year old daughter lives to choose her clothes and has cone up with some interesting combinations! She also went through a phase of refusing to eat fruit, but eating any vegetable we offered her - she still seems to like broccoli more than fruit!

Son.....visited by Council Home ed person.....decided in his wisdom to sing Free the People in the style of the Dubliners! Quite out of character ........

My six year old granddaughter just tells it as it is!. One of her most recent witticisms is to tell her Mum that she left her skin on the playground after she grazed her knee. Don't worry though my friend is looking for it!!

My eldest has always had his own interests and learns so many facts about the current thing. At the moment its nuclear weapons- he's 6 😲
My youngest son (4), just loves to decorate everything with sequins, fairy lights, ribbon. He's forever taping things up around the house.

My DS (aged 3) is strong willed and determined. I love that he knows his own mind but sometimes I struggle to rein this in while allowing him the freedom to express himself and learn.

My 5yo dd2 insists on sleeping on the floor in her room in a pop up tent and tunnel (made for toddlers so it's very small), I really don't think it can be very comfortable. My elder daughter who is 7yo likes to write in her diary every day (and has done for over a year) but likes to keep it secret by writing in invisible ink, so it looks like her well worn diary is full of empty pages. My ds (1yo) has decided his favourite toy is a wooden hammer, so carries it everywhere and sleeps with it.

Ds often chooses some very bright and clashing outfit. He says the colours make him happy, so he doesn't care. When he was younger he would often wear his cape - with everything. He even wore it to bed. It was his best gift ever.

My daughter proudly asserts that she is not a girl at all, but a tom boy. So far this has extended to wearing school uniform trousers, rather than gingham dresses, rejecting any hint of pink and ditching Brownies for Cubs. Luckily it turns out that tomboys can still be very keen on playing with dolls.

My daughter, 6, says 'I don't care what I look like' and is just herself - she doesn't seem to mind if people think she is 'quirky'. She is quite happy just to be her own person. She expresses herself a lot through drawing which we love to see. Our other daughter, 9, loves to dance and puts on regular 'shows' for us - it's the best thing to see them happy and doing what they love.

DS2 and DD2 have both enjoyed dressing up and are rarely seen in 'normal' clothes. Today, DD was dressed as Miss Claus for preschool :)
