the alphabet "game"

Now that Cody is officially registered for kindergarten, I'm beginning to panic. What if he's not ready? What if I haven't prepared him? What if, what if, what if... So, we've been playing lots of "games" lately that reinforce his language skills. Yesterday we played the alphabet game, and Cody absolutely loved it! All I did was pull out the alphabet cards and mix them up. Then Cody arranged them on the floor in a path. After placing each letter he would walk the path saying the letter's name and sound until he figured out what came next.

This morning when Cody woke up the first thing he said to me was, "Can we play the alphabet game again." I'm a firm believer of tricking them into learning - it works every time!
