My DD has been passing me letters and articulating them for about a month now. I am confident she knows A -she calls it the phonic A and that apple is associated with it as well, C is cat and O is phonically said as well as drawn as it is the first letter of her name, M is mummy (she hands me the foam letters in the shower while saying these btw) and T is train. Her words aren't the clearest but I know they are the right ones.
I don't want to be a pushy parent but it does feel as if she has an interest in learning them, so we go through them together and I say 'that is H for Hat' for example. She also correctly points out blue, purple, yellow, green, red, brown and orange and counts up to 3 objects/steps as she is going up.
I am wondering if this is normal as none of her friends seem to be able to do it but then their over all language is clearer.
Gimme a slap if I am being silly, feel a bit like I am trying to show off but really not sure if this is just normal progress.
