Wow! This morning dd was working on her watercolor painting and made a card for my niece whose birthday is on Saturday. She asked me how to spell her name and set to work painting all the letters of my niece's long name!!! I never sat down and showed her how to write letters, she just picked that up somehow. Pretty neat. :D

It is amazing what they will pick up on their own--and as they are interested :)

It is so neat to see that kind of learning take place, isn't it? :highfive
The other day my dd wrote the numbers 1-100 on our white board and had such a good time doing it. I'm not sure where she picked up all those numbers above 20, because we've nevery formally worked on them. :) And she never would have wanted to do that if it is was something I assigned her to do.

That is great. Thanks for sharing. I am journeying toward unschooling and this is encouraging.

Blessings,
