Josie & Her ABCs

As we mentioned in the previous post, Josie has started learning her letters. It really came as a surprise to both Hillary and I. Josie has a box full of books that she sifts through and 'reads,' one right after another. And she always requests us to read her this Sesame Street letters book.


After reading it to her so much, Josie would usually repeat the letters after us one by one. While we thought that was smart, she really wowed us one night during dinner by reading the letters on a can of PAM. Hillary and looked at each other and began incorporating letter identification into play, asking her the letters on the most random things, which she thought was funny. Now she can name most letters of the alphabet on cue. Occasionally she needs help with the 'z' and 'x' - which she calls 'yuck.' She has alphabet magnets for our fridge that her grandma bought her, and an alphabet puzzle that she loves to put together. And yes she had done the whole puzzle by herself.

Happy Fall Y'all!
