My daughter (4.5) has been reading phonetically for a while now, but in the past couple months, she's started speaking this way . . . ie: I use a word as part of a sentence and she repeats the word back phonetically . . . ex: I ask her something about her hairbrush and she'll repeat, "buh-ruh-uh-shhh". I'm sure it's connected to her new reading abilities (she's also started writing out words that she can sound out and is really surprising me with the things she's come up with), but it's kind of odd and can be grating when she does it a lot. She does it when she's playing or talking to herself as well.
Anyone else's kids do this?
