What I love is my son's daycare/preschool: Mini-Skool. Seriously folks. If you're an educational facility, try to spell things right for the childrens' sake. I taught my kid the correct spelling, and he marched straight into the director's office the next day and told her her she spelled the sign wrong. Big grin

This reminded me of the University of North Texas' (UNT) radio station letters before they changed them. It was a bit offensive. Surprised

Do you have any kids in elementary school yet? If not, you'll love "inventive spelling" - they just let the kids spell words any way they want. Don't get me started.

That's the first thing I thought of too. Apparently, the school administrators didn't think too much when they named it originally.

When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

That isn't exactly what happens. There are developmental stages to young writers, however, that isn't the point of my post. Wink

I read Zoomy's post earlier in the week and I laughed and then today, I kid you not, one of my kindergarteners had written a note to a classmate whose last day was today: Wii are gowing to miss you! I laughed and thought of RA. Then we had two quick little spelling lessons! Big grin
