Ren started preschool about six weeks ago, and it's been fun (most of the time) watching how he's connecting what he already knew with what he's learning in school. For example, making the connection between letters and the sounds they make and words he knows.
Ren: "Mommy, A, A is for alligator. And Abel. (A classmate.) F, F is for Farren. P, P is for penis."
Me: "Um.....P is for peanuts, that's right."
Ren: "No, P is for penis. And pizza!"
Due to his pronunciation I can only hope that if he pulls this in class his teacher thinks he's saying peanuts. (Yikes!) Here's hoping that at some point I feel teaching him the anatomically correct names for things has a positive side to it!!!
