We parents learn to become very innovative and spontaneous with games. Anuj was cleaning the drawer and found some old visiting cards, actually lots of them. He just asked Milosh to spell the animal that .. collects honey, the animal that says meow etc .... And my sweet little boy spelled them on the back of the cards. This one is cuteness overload.
(the real animals are: Zebra, tiger, bee, cat, butterfly :), dog, elephant and turtle)
Note he is trying to spell with sounds and its probably the first we saw him take interest in writing big words (other than his name :)) So this is almost a little milestone! After watching his reaction in trying to correct 1-2 spellings, I got reminded I had read somewhere that one should not try to tell the kids that the spelling is wrong and what is the right spelling - they wont remember/ get the right spelling, they will remember feeling wrong. So we all just enjoyed what he was doing!
