He’s Reading.
Little A’s wit at this stage really never fails to amaze me. I just bought him 2 My First Words Books and a box of animal flash cards last Friday and guess what, he has already mastered and can correctly associate 20 out of 32 pictures of animals with their names (and vice versa). He has certainly deepened his vocabulary these past few weeks and he can even now convey his thoughts in two to three word sentences. He can now count (recite) from 1 to 15 with a little help on 11 and 12. I’m now coaching him his ABCs but so far he can just recite from A to D. He can follow and pronounce each letter though when guided. What’s funny is that whenever he sees words with big letters, he spells them while pointing to the letters and he goes like "A..B..C…eben, eyt, nay, ten!" He mixes his letters and numbers. LOL. But at least, he knows already the concept of reading, right?
The Book Lover.
I bought little A his first set of story books when he was 3 months old. Way back then when his eyes has started to appreciate colors and other visuals, he loved looking at the pictures while listening (albeit he doesn’t understand it yet) as I read the stories of Peter Pan, Beauty and the Beast and some of his first books to him. When he turned 6 months old and began teething, he still loves his books but it’s his mouth that appreciated the books more as he’s addicted with gnawing them.
