(filed under 'smiley')
at three & a half years old, smiley's really forging ahead with his reading & writing skills.
he can sing all of the alphabet song with no mistakes. he also knows what sounds some of the letters make & can tell me some words that start with those letters. he tells me, i don't even prompt him .. & they're words we haven't necessarily done before. he figures them out on his own.
he's recently copied words from books on written them on paper. we used a stencil book to make a paw from blue's clues on some paper & later on when i saw the paper in the lounge room, he'd copied "blue's clues" from the cover & written it on the paper with the paw.
he can also count up to 40! only two or three weeks ago he was counting up to 20 & missed the number 15, but now he can count up to 30 easily & has counted up to 40 a couple of times. he doesn't miss out on any of the numbers at all.
he's so clever.
