"Reading"

Julianna has become increasingly interested in the process of reading. She's always loved for me to read books to her. Jules loves asking questions, many quite thought-provoking. Her favorite reading skill to date is making connections from the story to life-experiences. It is so fascinating to watch her little mind whirl.

Above she is "reading" an impromptu story. I only caught the second half. She is using the pen to point to each "word" as she "reads." : ) The sound quality on my digital camera is really poor. The jist of the story is...about a little girl who goes to a picnic and brings too much food. Jules lists the real and make-believe foods she brings (including "Coke, Fire Stew, and fruit). At the very end she adds, "dot.com" for an unknown reason. : )
