She enjoys using felt pens; so I wrote her name using a yellow highlighter and encouraged her to trace over the letters… Continue reading Name writing
Library Visit
We recently visited our local library and they have such a vast array of children’s books you never need to purchase one again!! My daughter can issue and return her books and enjoys the whole process. I would highly recommend using them.
