Letter of the day

The letter of the day today is 'C'. My daughter was able to sound this one just fine. She was able to remember the sounds for 'U' and 'P' too, but when I showed her 'C' again she got it confused with 'U'. I can see how this can happen as they both look very similar in an arial style font. I didn't push her so hopefully we can overcome this.

A friend at work told me about the LeapFrog Fridge Phonics Magnetic Letter Set game that he had purchased for his daughter. He said that she knew almost all of the sounds for all the letters. I thought this might be cool so I bought it. I plan to give my daughter a letter magnet each time she learns a new one.
