Hi Trinity,
This cracks me up everytime he asks for it, but his favorite book is " Comprehensive Curriculum of Basic Skills " I got at a garage sale. It's for preschoolers so it's teaching the basic stuff. Just in the past few days he has asked me to help him trace his fingers over the words and numbers. I have found that books with complex story lines don't hold his attention, but he loves Goldilocks, Three Little Pigs, and walks around the house spelling the titles of those stories.
One thing that really has me worried is my DH asks our DS to spell for people - all the time -- and of course most of the time he is too shy to. I've begun to notice, though, that DS tries to get the attention of Grandparents or friends when he is doing something normal, as if everyone should see what he is doing all the time. Does that make sense ? I don't want to him to feel he has to show off or prove how smart he is to be accepted. I know some of it is being 2 1/2, but any thoughts on this ?!!?
I went to our local(small) library and they are having to borrow Deb Ruf's book from another library, but I can't wait to get my hands on it. Any other good books I could look for ?
Have a good night all,
happymother
