I made up this How to Spell Your Name Song to help B learn to spell his name and baby N’s name. It’s also helping him at a time when he is confusing “him, her, he, and she” (ex: Look at that boy, she’s eating a sucker.). It works no matter how long or short the name is, you just have to sing the letters faster or slower.
To the tune of B-I-N-G-O
There is a girl,
She is the best!
And Nicole is her name.
N-I-C-O-L-E
N-I-C-O-L-E
N-I-C-O-L-E
And Nicole is her name.
Activity Extension:
Once your child knows the song, print the song on a piece of paper and have your child point to each letter/word as they sing it. It helps with exposure to their name and also a few beginning sight words.

What about to the tune of "Do You Know the Muffin Man"? Do you know how to spell my name, spell my name, spell my name? Do you know how to spell my name, E-s-t-e-b-a-n

I have used this trick with both of my kids. My five year olds name was sung to "Twinkle Twinkle" and my 19 month old's to Bingo. I think it works with many familiar childrens' songs and boy, does it ever help them learn their names fast!!! It also helps when learning how to print their names.
