AJ learns to write her name

I am so excited about this, really. After weeks and weeks of teaching her one letter at a time, she was finally able to write her name. At first i was guiding her hand in writing her whole name (surname included), then she goes on to write on her own. Isn't she clever for a 3-year old? I was actually asking her to write everything including my maiden surname but she kepts on complaining that it's too long. "Aliyah Janelle Macugay Cabrera" is not long, there are a lot of children out there who has longer name than hers. But naah! I'm not complaining though, she would eventually learn. We'll gonna go through it one at a time.

Right now, I am also teaching her how to read, she already knows all the letters of the english alphabet so now we are starting to learn Filipino Alphabet (w/c of course is almost the same except for the pronunciation).

But I will not be pushing her through that a lot - seriously. I believe timing is everything, of course, she will not be able to learn everything if she's not ready. It's more on injecting a little more of the learning part while playing (or at least when she thinks we're playing). That way, retention is higher.

And she's like a sponge! She kepts on absorbing all what I teach her.

I am so proud of her!
