B,C, A?

It means "alphabets" for our two-year old son.

I don't know if it's early for him to be able to identify and say some of the letters of the alphabet (only in capital letters though) but I am just proud of him. I must say I didn't force to teach him. He is very keen to learn and his memory is expanding by the minute (I wish my laptop memory is expanding too. LOLz).

If we are outside and he sees some distinct letters, he'd say B,C, A meaning to say "alphabets". And If I bring him closer, he'd identify those that are familiar to him.

He can say these letters and identify them when used in a word:

A, B, C, E, F, H, I, K, N, O, P, S, U

I don't know how he came to know letters like H, P and S. I don't remember teaching those to him. Hubby swears he didn't teach him as well. Well okay, maybe in passing. You know when I read the whole alphabet?

At home, he would demand for a pen and paper. And he'd say, "B,C,A Mommy, B,C,A". That's my clue to write the letters. At first I just started with three letters ABC and three numbers 123. But lately he wants more. I don't want to overwhelm him so I introduce only one new letter to him very other day. And he's doing quite well. As for number, I just stopped at number four.

With this new development, comes more new words he can utter. Everyday is interesting with a toddler. He can juggle three words now forming a broken sentence, like "plane fly sky" or "like swimming pool" or "mommy, wash hand".

When he say "oh no! /uh-oh" and "ahkay/alright", it's just darn cute.

Just a few months from now, I'm sure I'll be complaining how talkative he is. LOLz.
