Aged 3-4

I haven't updated Sofea's milestone in a while. It gets boring because they are at their own pace. While social/emotional and physical milestones are always achieved on time or earlier, speech is never at par. She is still 'pelat'. She has word, but still speaks softly. Needs coaxing to speak louder. 

She's reading phoetically. She surprised me earlier this year by reading 3 letters word. Apparently she can read longer words too. I have not started her on books like Ladybird. I'm not being very conventional. Reading is made fun and creative for her. She's only 3! Ok, 3 years 4 months, but I really should consider her 4.
