E-M-I-L-Y
Finally Emily learns how to spell her name. It is not that I want to teach her spelling so early but she constantly asked me how to spell her name. After repeating many times, I decided to teach her. I did the first 2 letters with her but my hubby beats me to it.
Hubby thought her mind mapping, something he picked up during his training to improve his memory. Mind mapping is a technique very good for students studying for exams. It uses key words and images on paper to help one remember. You can add colors to it to enhance memory. How does Emily mind map look like, here ya go.
Bottom line she is able to spell her name now. Bravo to papa! :clap:

Papa’s drawing? Wow.. good!
Zara knows how to spell her name, but does not recognise the alphabet yet, so she says Z-A-R-A, but don’t know how the letters look like. 😛 -

slavemom: Emily just have to know what is the first letter of each of the animal there, which she already did. Like E for Elephant, M for Monkey…etc.
