> My sister works with kids on their speech at a school and she's said that it's _bad_ how many children can't read or tell you what letter their first name starts with

This just blows my mind. Literally the first thing I taught my Toddler once he started learning letters was how to spell his own name.






I still remember how to fingerspell my old name, I'm not sure why mom taught me that.

It gets you familiar with the shapes of the letters in a more intimate way
