I just looked and my new laptop is called Acer. And I keep it right where Klara’s toys and art supplies are. (She’s very careful and never touches things she shouldn’t, so it’s safe).
But she can’t read, can she? She has known her letters since early Fall but surely she can’t read?
This is creepy.
P.S. I didn’t know my laptop’s brand because I didn’t buy it. I got it from a programmer in exchange for a gewgaw I was sent for review but found too gadgety for my purposes.
Why shouldn’t she read? I think you mentioned also learning to read at 3.

She learned but she’s keeping that from me? That’s really creepy.

I knew my letters shortly after turning two, and started understanding what letters did not all that long afterwards. It certainly could be a coincidence, it could be that she heard it discussed, even if you don’t remember the conversation, or it could be that she actually read it (though “Acer” isn’t exactly easy, with the soft “c” sound).
Usually when I am wondering about what comes out of my kids’ mouths, I try to casually ask them about it (“Oh, why do you like those names?”, in this case) and see what the answer is. It’s usually a pretty simple answer.
Unless, of course, you have a genius on your hands! 😉
