Since posting this i have been watching Kimberley and she loves to draw and the other day she drew us all including baby in the tummy. She even thinking writing what looks like a T is her letters.
Silvia - thats amazing ! Apparently its the best itme to teach/learn a second language, in the first few years. I wish I knew a second language. I don't think swearing counts, does it ?
At Caits kinda their aim for the kids was to be able to recongise their name in print and count by rote from 1-10. I don't know if all pre schools in Victoria are like that. She could write her name at 3 1/2. She's just turned five, can count to about 180 before getting bored, reads about 80% of the words in her books and writes small sentences. She has a friend who has just started counting to 20 and when he heard her count, he freaked right out !! Like he didn't know there were numbers after 20. But then, he rides a bike and a skateboard and Cait doesn't.
A friend was telling me about childrens first drawings - they're called sun people - just a circle with sticks for arms and legs and a smile on the head.
