5 and 6 Keep in mind that children don't all learn at the same pace. You are in the best position to decide what activities will work best for your child. As a parent, you are your child's first and most important teacher. And you don't need to be the best reader to help her. Your time and interest and the pleasure you share while reading together are what counts.
Children become readers step by step.
By the time they are 7, most have begun to read. Some take longer than others, and some need extra help. But with the right kind of help in the early years of life, most of the reading difficulties that might arise later in life can be prevented. This site offers steps you can take to start your little one on her way to becoming a reader. It is an adventure you will not want to miss, and the benefits for your child will last a lifetime.
