Step 10Your name is a huge puzzle to me
Once your child has finished cutting away and you've lent a hand trimming up the pieces you've now made a word scramble puzzle!
With all the practice your tot did spelling her name, the next step is to extend the letter recognition by teaching her how to unscramble the letters in her name!
This will be WAYYYYY hard at first for most kids and you don't want your child to become frustrated, so don't push the puzzle. Instead, ease into it by simply practicing the letters with the child first:
Perhaps spread out all the letters in her name facing her and practice a name cheer as your child hands you each letter:
You say: "Gimme an "A"
She says: "A" (as she hands you a "d"--don't let this frustrate you...We're all learning here! In time an "A" will be an "A" and a "d" will be a backwards "b")
