As toddlers grow older and are learning how to listen, start reading parts of the story. Let toddlers turn the pages. Expect him to skip pages or want to look at books upside down or backward. Fill a basket or bucket full of books for toddlers. When it's reading time, ask them to pick tow or three books they'd like to share.
Preschoolers Let preschoolers' reading skills develop at their own pace.
Don't push them to start reading before they're ready. Teach them the basics in fun ways. Go on a reading hunt and look for things with words on them. At the grocery store, preschoolers will find words on magazines and newspapers, food packages, advertisements, money shopping lists, and more. Find picture books that don't have any words on the page, such as Time Flies by Eric Rohamann.
