A Sweet Intro

This blog is dedicated to our darling boy, born prematurely at 29 weeks and miraculously survived all odds during his 57 days in the ICU. We named him Reagan, which means our "Little King", strong and brave enough to fight any battles. He is also our little king whom we worship with a lifetime of our love and kisses. Baby Reagan continues to amaze us with his awesome strength, big personality, joyful laughter and lovely smiles. This is where we share both our learning journeys and all the fun bonding time together.

Goal reached: Baby Reagan "reads" 50 words/phrases at 18 months

Baby Reagan has accomplished the goal of "reading" or identifying 50 words/phrases at 18 months. He can't say the word out vocally but he uses baby signings or actions to demonstrate the meaning of the words that are shown to him. Click HERE for the video.
 
Baby Reagan is picking up words at a faster speed now. As I continue to teach him more and more new words, he is able to successfully learn the cards after flashing to him in less than a week time.  
 
Besides flashing the cards to him, sometimes I write the words on the whiteboard for him to identify ,or place the cards on the floor and get him to find and pick up the word that I read aloud to him.
A baby's brain is much powerful than we thought. They are absorbing like a sponge and the more you are willing to teach, the more they absorb. Our reading activity is just like a fun game to him and he is still enjoying every session we have together.
