Thanks to a lovely combination of ear tubes & educational DVDs, Kade is popping off all sorts of new words. Since his surgery, he has learned: 'Ky-Gee' (his sister, Kyleigh), Flag (he points every single flag out on tv, products & going down the road), circle, he has counted from 0-10, learned most of his colors and body parts & is able to express his love for ice. Not to forget 'Puppy'. My absolute favorite word he says =)
He is also becoming a more polite child. He now says "I'm sorry" about every little thing, 'Welcome', he's been saying 'Thank You' & 'Please' for nearly a year but uses it everytime he wants or receives something.
My favorite part of all of this has been the fact that my son can read his first word yesterday!! We bought Kade Preschool Prep Company DVDs to help him learn his letters, colors, numbers & shapes. This weekend we bought 'Meet The Sight Words 1'. I spelled all of the words off for him while he was busy playing blocks the first go around. Then the DVD goes back over the words shortly after. Before the word 'play' was even pronounced Kade yelled out "Play!". This DVD will be on replay at the Chastain house for sure!! If you are a SAHM, these DVDs are easy to pop in while you cook supper or do housework and they benefit your children SO much!!
Sorry for going on but I just had to brag on him!!
