Tot School: J is for (GoGoGirl)!
GoGoGirl is 39 months old.
This week, we did several fun activities using the first letter of her name.
I stuck a sticker J onto a handheld mirror, so when she looks in her mirror she can exclaim, “J is for (GoGoGirl)!” She loves this!
I printed out two copies of each of several photos from the past month. I put one copy of each in a baggie with a magnetic J and a C, and she flips through the pictures and puts the J on her face and the C on KarateKid’s. It’s a great take-along activity, too.
I cut up the other photos, cutting out her face from each one. She glued these onto a giant letter J to make a fun poster.
KarateKid made one too!
All week she would bring me her mirror, or the photo bag, or her collage, and tell me, “Let’s do school! J is for (GoGoGirl)!” She’s starting to move from being a happy little tag-along to a kid who wants her own time to learn fun things with Mommy.

What a great way to start learning name recognition! (Hey, my anti-spam word was “learning!” did you do that on purpose?)

J is for is such a great idea! I would like to try that with my son. Isnt it great when they come and ask to ‘do school?’ It always makes me feel like I am doing something right
