Emma Knows Her Colors!

I found out on President's Day (16th of Feb, 2009) that Emma already knows her colors but mostly in English. I was putting her to bed and turned on her turtle which displays the starts on the ceiling. She likes the amber/orange color but when you turn it on it defaults to green. She pointed at the turtle and said "green". I then switched it to blue and she said "blue" and finally to her favorite which she calls "orange". I had her repeat the colors in polish but when you ask her what color something is she still answers in English but correctly. She know the flowers on the kitchen table are yellow and that the leaves are green. I am quite surprised because I didn't realize she knew them. We read to her and point out colors all the time but didn't realize she picked them up until now. I knew she recognized colors because she tends to group blocks, etc by color. I do have to give credit to the daycare for this since we teach her everything in Polish. Considering her limited vocabulary I am quite happy with this new skill. Go Emma!
