Annike started making babbling sounds at 14 months. She now talks in sentences and is getting clearer every day. Annike's favourite toy is her doggie, a furry stuffed toy given to her by Agnes. She takes "Doggie" everywhere and could not sleep without it. She is learning quicker because she copies whatever Arianne is doing.

She insists on having a pen and some paper whenever Arianne is doing her homework. Annike also loves to draw and colour, although her drawings are still more of abstract expressions at this stage. She loves to read, watch videos, has a special talent for singing and dancing. Some of her favourite tunes to which she sings along is "Do-Re-Mi" from the Sound of Music and "So Young" by The Corrs.
