Devin's academic progress has really been impressing us lately! He has taken a liking to letters and sounds and is really catching on quickly. Just tonight during his bath as he was playing with his foam letters I was asking him loads of questions.
Mom: Devin what sound does 'bear' begin with?
Devin: B like Boden! (*we did several more beginning sound examples at this time)
Mom: And what does 'duck' begin with?
Devin: dddd D like Devin!
Mom: Very good! How do you spell Devin? What comes first?
Devin: D
Mom: Yup. And then what?
Devin: e-v-i-n.
Mom: Great job Devin! Now how do you spell 'bus' ?
Devin: Bbbbuuuussss. B-u-s. Bus.
Mom: Yes! Okay and how do you spell 'Hi' ?
Devin: Hi. H-i. Hi. *Devin can also write Hi (his first written word).
Erick and I are so proud of our boy, whose brain is like a little sponge just absorbing everything around him! I write this, though, not to brag, but to preserve these memories and milestones.

That's so great! You SHOULD be proud of your little smartie :)
Isn't it fun to watch them soak things up?
Have you tried Starfall.com yet?
Wow that is impressive! Nash isn't even close to doing this yet even though he is in preschool/daycare.
