| Actions: | Transcribed as Text Episodes |
| Episode A: 00:05 |
Peggy; NVV (a raspberry” or “Bronx Cheer”) [holding LH the starred ball, she looks at reaches for and mouths the medium rod then drops it for the medium cube] [hitting RH the small cup (open face visible) on the side, knocking the cup closed side up, she lifts BH and bites the cup closed edge; with fingers inside, rotates, looks at it; is there a 2nd bite?] |
| Episode B: 00:27 |
Peggy: [turns to, begins pushing on the starred ball; discarding the small cup, she begins biting the starred ball] [rising on her knees, she bites the ball with vocalization] Bob: I don’t want this to get away from you, Peggy. Let me put them over here. Peggy: [after handling a rod and cube, mouthing the cube, she returns to rolling the starred ball with Vocalization and biting and lifting it with her mouth] [Manual pushing RH with vocals leads to holding the ball up in her mouth and looking at the remaining toys grouped by Bob] |
| Episode C: 01:42 |
Peggy: [releases her bite-grip, puts the starred ball down and reaches for the small, plastic ball, fondles the small cup, then returns to the starred ball with vocals ] NVV, ~= “Wah” [raised up on her left elbow, with starred ball held by her teeth, she views other objects, turns head left, releases ball then returns, hitting sticks, small cube and picks the plastic ball] [Having mouthed the plastic ball and released it, once more she holds the starred ball by bite, drops it and mouths the plastic ball, then drops it also] Camera: [ shifts to mirrored Peggy and returns quickly] |
| Episode D: 02:45 |
Peggy: [raises LH plastic ball, mouths it, then strikes it against pen uprights – Camera switches to mirrored, face-on view – with quick return to direct view; she unblocks access to 2 cups] [picking RH the white (medium) cup, she mouths the closed face and twists with difficulty to get LH the small cup, bites the open edge and throws it out of the playpen] Bob: I’ll get it for you, sweetie. [reinserts small cup with others, then he crosses to slide screen door closed] |
| Episode E: 03:27 |
Peggy: [reaches RH for tennis ball; tilting it upright, the large ball sits on the small cup open face; she mouths it LH and throws it down, into the open face of the large cup, then uses the medium cup to strike at it twice.] [She also throws the large block at the tennis ball] [knocking the medium cup out of the way, she removes RH the tennis ball, and lifts LH the large cup, pushing it beyond the starred ball; losing her grip when striking it with the large rod, the rod falls outside the playpen] [As Peggy looks outside the pen and Bob refocuses the camera to verify her gaze, a 2nd rod also hits the floor] [After mouthing the small rod, she ejects that from the playpen as well] |
| Episode F: 04:14 |
Bob: Well, you’re sure throwing those all over, Peg. No, I can’t even find it here… Okay. Peggy: NVVs (rapid succession), ~”Mom”, ~”bom”, ~”meh”. [End 04:27] |

| AI Summary: | as Contents List – Peggy frequently mouths and bites various objects, especially a starred ball, cups, and a plastic ball, often vocalizing while doing so. – She manipulates the small cup, flips it closed-side up, bites its edge, rotates it with fingers, and discards it. – Bob groups toys to prevent distraction and later retrieves and reintroduces items Peggy throws out of the playpen. – Peggy alternates between rolling, lifting, and holding the starred ball in her mouth while visually inspecting other toys. – She produces nonverbal vocalizations, including a raspberry/Bronx cheer and sounds like “Wah,” later approximations like “Mom,” “bom,” and “meh.” – She explores object relationships: places the tennis ball on the small cup’s open face and later drops it into the large cup, then strikes at it with the medium cup. – Camera briefly switches to a mirrored view twice, capturing face-on perspectives before returning to direct view. – Peggy repeatedly mouths and drops the plastic ball, also striking it against the playpen uprights. – She throws multiple objects out of the playpen, including the small cup and several rods; Bob notes difficulty finding them. – Throughout, she shows active problem-solving and cause-effect play (stacking, striking, ejecting items) paired with sustained vocal exploration. |
| AI Narrative: | In this short observational clip, a child named Peggy engages with a variety of toys inside a playpen while an adult, Bob, supervises and occasionally adjusts the setup. The session begins with Peggy alternating attention between a starred ball, a rod, and a medium cube. She explores a small plastic cup by striking it, flipping it closed-side up, and bringing it to her mouth. Much of her interaction involves mouthing and biting objects, accompanied by brief vocalizations that suggest active engagement with the materials. As Peggy’s focus returns to the starred ball, she adopts a pattern of pushing it, lifting it with her mouth, and vocalizing while rising onto her knees. Bob steps in briefly to consolidate the remaining toys so they don’t scatter out of reach. Peggy cycles through objects—rod, cube, plastic ball—frequently returning to the starred ball. Her inspection involves lifting, biting, and looking at other grouped items while holding the ball in her teeth, then releasing and reengaging with other nearby objects. The camera occasionally shifts to a mirrored view and back as Peggy continues to alternate among the starred ball, a small plastic ball, and various cups. She mouths the plastic ball, drops it, returns to the starred ball, and repeats similar sequences. At one point, she raises the plastic ball and taps it against the playpen uprights. This exploration temporarily blocks and then reopens access to two cups, which she promptly tests by mouthing and manipulating, even throwing the small cup out of the pen before Bob replaces it. A brief series of more complex interactions follows: Peggy positions a larger ball on the rim of a small cup, mouths it, and then drops it into the large cup. She uses a medium cup to strike at the ball and tosses a large block toward the tennis ball. When she loses her grip on a large rod while striking the large cup, the rod falls out of the playpen. She looks toward the fallen objects, and as Bob adjusts the camera to match her gaze, another rod also drops. After mouthing a small rod, she ejects that one as well. The clip ends with Peggy continuing to interact energetically—removing and relocating the tennis ball, moving the large cup beyond the starred ball, and producing a sequence of rapid, brief vocal sounds (reported as “Mom,” “bom,” “meh”). Bob notes the scattering of rods and searches momentarily. Overall, the recording captures a sustained period of exploratory play characterized by mouthing, banging, lifting, placing, throwing, and frequent shifts in attention among familiar objects. |
