I'd like to add a note for those little kiddos like mine who dislike 'showing off' (you know, the ones who tell you an red apple is green if prompted)
I realized that all the early learning activities I'm doing with my daughter are done exclusively by myself. All the book reading, dvd watching, games played, LR etc.. she knows only through me.
I've been spending a lot more time than usual with my parents lately and asked my mother if she would like to do something with her, which the two of them would do exclusively. She agreed and made her own cards (very small, on cardboard). Every day she wrote a new word next to my daughter. I was never part of the process. Well today my mother asked me to watch them play. (my daughter could not see me).
And then my daughter proceeded to read every single words showed to her (6) It was taking her about a second to reply as my mom would hand a card to her.
Such a sweet feeling.
