Bela’s Milestone at 2 years old

Last night, before I put Bela to sleep, she grabbed my hands and pointed it to the Alphabet chart posted on our bedroom wall. So I immediately point to each of the letters in the chart and Bela excitedly identified each of the letters. Before, she only knows the letter A, S, H, O, I, K. But last night I was amazed, as she already knows almost all the letters in the alphabet. She can even identify the picture beside the letters like the whale, xylophone, umbrella, snake, etc. And she will imitate the sounds if the picture is an animal, like she will imitate the sound of a whale and a snake.

And now she knows the color yellow. Before she can identify all the primary colors except yellow. She finds it difficult to pronounce kse. But now, as soon as she sees something yellow, she will point to it and say “ellow”. She also has a fascination for the shape circle. She already knows all the shapes but circle is her favorite. Every time she sees anything shaped like a circle, like her lolo’s watch or the rim of a drinking glass, she will immediately say, “circle” (with an accent) and draws a circle in the air.

Hay, Bela will never cease to amaze us talaga.
