Kavya is learning new things

It is getting difficult to keep up with all the new things that Kavya is learning these days. Here are some of her recent achievements :

Learning to write: She has started writing letters and numbers. As I have mentioned in one of the previous posts, she created her first birthday card and she enjoys writing her name a lot.

Learning to read: Our good friend, Niti, gifted two 12-book series of the famous "Dick & Jane" to Kavya. For past month or so, we have formed a habit of reading two of those books every night before bed time with Kavya. As a result, Kavya is very much interested in reading and can almost ready more than half of those books herself.

Learning to recognize car makers: Now that summer is here, we go for a walk or bike ride with Kavya in the evenings in our community. While doing so, we pass by a lot of different cars in the parking spots. So, we started teaching Kavya about the different symbols and the brand that they represent. In a short span of 1 week or so, she has started recognizing Honda, Toyota, Lexus, Acura, Ford, Audi, VolksWagon, Chevy, Mazda, Mercedez, Subaru, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, Jeep, Dodge, Convertible, Hummer, Chrysler, BMW, Dodge, Saturn, Pontiac (some of which I didn't know before too :-)
