Fun with flash cards.

Over the weekend I went with my sister, mom, and step dad to look at wedding dresses for my sister. Its actually alot of fun :) And it only took 3 dresses! The 3rd was PERFECT! I'm glad she found a great wedding dress!

While out riding around with David and the kids(we went to look at the church my sister plans to get married in) I saw the big sign up at the school by our house. It was letting everyone know that Pre-K registration for 3-4 year olds is going on now. And it hit me. BAM. Taylor could actually start SCHOOL this year. I mean real school. As in back packs, leaving me in the mornings, being at school etc. I've planned on doing preschool this year with her anyways, but I guess it didn't really hit me. My baby girl is starting school. :(

And she LOVES school at home of course. We do school everyday, whenever she wants to. It's not really school. We just play, color together, paint together, draw pictures, practice our letters and numbers and colors and shapes(she has them all down, so now moving on to different things. Letter sounds, numbers higher then 13, etc.) She loves her little work books and every day she learns something new. May not be anything major, but to her it is. Today we played with flash cards while Ryder was napping.

I laid out 4 random cards at a time. And I would ask her where is letter K? And she would look at them and hand me the letter K. We done all the uppercase and then all the lowercase. She knows them all! Theres a couple she stumbles on but with a little more fun practice she will have them down with out any trouble. I'm starting letter sounds with her, its a little more difficult for her. B,C,E,D,P,M,&N give her trouble. They all sound close to each other(E&P M&N etc.) Since she loved playing the flash card game I'm just going to work on letter sounds with the flash cards.

Here are some pictures of the flash card game :)
