Homeschooling: My Daughter “Teaches” Amazing Amanda To Read

Written on December 21, 2007 – 9:18 pm | by Opal Tribble |

My daughter, Aiyana, received one of her Christmas gifts early. I wrote about it on my main website, Vegan Momma. Later that day found her reading to Amazing Amanda. How cute is that? Amanda was chattering about “Let’s Play” and Aiyana was saying, “Shh, Amanda, you have to be quiet mommy is reading to you. Aiyana was reading to her from the McGuffey readers.

Aiyana really likes Amazing Amanda although she isn’t playing with it all the time. I expected that but when she wants something that talks back to her besides her mommy she reaches for Amanda.

We don’t get too much into the Christmas holidays at least not the buying aspect of it. It’s way to commercialized, and I never got into things, you know? That’s the last thing I want my daughter to do with Christmas think it’s all about what she can get. We do spend a lot of time with the family simply because they have more time from work. I enjoy hanging with family & friends.
