Sometimes she has problems while reading too, esp with 'b' and 'd'.

That's pretty typical for the age. Give her a lot of opportunities to write at home: make notes for the family, shopping lists, label things in the pantry, closet or drawers. (Have her sound out words- more important than spelling correctly-at this point) Make it a game,use playdough to form words, silly string, bathtub crayons, make it fun, gently correct but don't worry too much this year.

The brain still has undiscovered territory. The light enters the lens in the eye and turns it upside down. The brain learns to switch it right side up. I am a bit of a dyslexic where I some times have problems with numbers. Mostly when I am tired. I am excellent in math and yet my brain will switch numbers when I transfer them from reading to writing.
I believe my math ability stays in the head and gets lost when I tell my hand to write it down, cause when I read what I write I can see it is not what I intended to write and I do not know how that happens. I can see a young child making these errors as the brain needs to learn, but I am *ahem* over 50. . .My younger sister has the same problem, so it can be genetic. . .(No one is perfect I guess). I do not believe you have to worry yet. . .good luck.

I've read somewhere that kids really do get thier b's and d's their 6's and 9's and other letters or numbers similar mixed up. but there will come a time when they will get the stuff right. But there is a kind of disorder when the kid reads everything in reverse. sometimes whole words or they pick out the middle letters of the words. Peculiarities that you should then be worried about

b and d is a normal thing and so is the mirror image thing.
My oldest had the b / d thing and it still gets her sometimes.
both of my children(9&3) have or do write in mirror image.
I have found using lined paper to help with the mirror image writing. It give them a background to relate it too.
When I was younger my mom had a little poster up with "b a d" written on it and the b was talking to the d.

relax, i did this up until i was 7. i write a backwards letter to my sister with snakes drawn all over it, and she found it strange! and I remember vividly when i was five how facinating hindi and arabic writings were. i always tried to write like they did. still do. it's cool. its just experimenting and playing around. please keep everything every single thing your child draws. i regret not keeping all of mine. but if your kid is learnin to read and write already, better help them do it the right way.

it is perfectly normal for beginning writers. If it does persist after practice, then you might want him/her tested for dyslexia.

It's totally normal and something that practice will teach her.
