I only showed them maybe three times.

I learn so much from Dora too. Laura, Caitie has the Dota talking kitchen, right? I heard kids LOVE that toy. What do you think? I know some Japanese, used to be much closer to fluent in college, but I'd really like to start teaching Noah. You're right, now is a good time to start.

It's amazing that he already knows his letters. I am just starting to teach Caitlin. She's known her ABC's for awhile but doesn't know what they look like or the sounds that they make. Like Noah, she has picked up an incredible amount of Spanish from Dora. I am going to have to get a Spanish/English dictionary soon 'cause she asks me what the Spanish word is for almost everything. They say that between 2-5 is the best time to start teaching a 2nd language 'cause kids are sponges. Have fun with Noah!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15927215566474451712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9902677.post-1169583363558646382007-01-23T15:16:00.000-05:002007-01-23T15:16:00.000-05:00OF COURSE he's brilliant!

With Tyler, though, I think we'll probably have to take out extra life insurance - the kid is fearless and scares us to pieces!Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14858511221598789469noreply@blogger.com
