My son and I are working on the "L" sound today and he is so cute trying to get the sounds to come out right. He is only 3 and I know that speech isn't something to worry about at this age, but when I think about it we "practice" saying a few words with the sounds he needs to practice. Today we tried "L" (he says the "w" sound, very common). It was fitting since daddy is out of town for business so after a little practice he called daddy to say "I Love You!" rather than "I Wuv You." Daddy was impressed, of course. Don't know if it will stick, probably not right away, but it made me think about how I will miss hearing the "wuv you" when he finally outgrows the speech thing. He is just so adorable saying it, oh it is just TOO cute! ***SIGH WITH A FARAWAY LOOK IN MY EYE***
On a completely different subject: I have a GREAT website to share with you! And it is one I ALREADY had in my favorites that I found all by myself! It is a great resource for anyone with preschool aged children, even kindergarten. It isn't overly educational, but it is a great source for cute fingerplays and songs with Christian themes. My daughter would come home from 3-yr-old pre-k singing the CUTEST little songs and I thought "Where does Mrs. J find all this stuff?!?" I thought my kids would be severely lacking in the cute poem and song department with just mommy for their teacher...but ALAS, I found it, the ultimate resource for Christian songs, fingerplays, poems, etc, and crafts to go along! I am such a newbie to the homeschooling world, that I bet most everyone has this already tucked away in their favorites list, but here it is anyway! Have a great day!
