So, I got Ana some Fisher-Price magnetic letters/numbers.
She likes playing with fridge magnets, and I thought that if she had her own magnets to play with, she'd leave everybody else's alone. These are decent quality plastic letters - and they've got braille on them. Nice touch, really.
Except... they goofed. Minorly, not majorly. The W and the M look exactly alike except for the braille on them. And, for some bizarre reason, the M doesn't have its braille on the right like it's supposed to. So the *only* way to distinguish them is to know in advance which is which. Luckily for my sanity I remembered that braille W is just R reversed, and could figure it out.
It really, really irks me.
But I keep reminding myself that Ana's never going to learn braille off those things anyway.
Braille? Does that take a capital?

I think it does take a capital. It was named after its inventor, at any rate, so I don't see why not.

And neat. :) One of my nephews loves magnets too. And, of course, I love Braille.
