Recently, I've bought for our son a really useful toy-a wooden alphabet board, which despite presenting letters also has objects associated with them. Once he got it, he got down to taking out the elements and carefully looking at the pieces. Without any problems he was able to put the proper piece into the right slot.
Having seen his joy doing this, I decided to accompany him and read the letter to him along with the picture for it; so it was like: A is for an astronaut, B is for a bear, C is for a cow...
He enjoyed it even more and at the end he was able to name a few letters,; now even when he's eating a cooking in the shape of W or M he's examining the cooking carefully and saying: Mommy, this is M. Then, when i put the letter upside down he goes: This is W.
You may think I'm crazy, but I believe only in educational toys and so I try to take an advantage of any situation to teach our Little Prince various things. For sure, it'll be beneficial in the future.
