We're in the process of learning lower case as well. Allison picked up the upper case early and well and to no credit of my own. She just pointed at letters everywhere asking what they were and that's how she learned them. If I'd thought about it I would have thrown in lower case then. I did get some flash cards with both upper and lower case but we really haven't done too much with them yet. That’s a neat looking system. We’re in the process of learning lower case as well.

While that's great to start with, books are mostly written in lowercase letters, so it's nice when you can teach the two together rather than teaching the alphabet two separate times. Blondie's had her uppercase letters mastered for a long time, but there are still a few lowercase ones we need to work on.
