[quote=Anonymous]DW shops a lot of books & workbooks for our 4 year old DD, and there are at least almost two hundreds of them at our house. There are short stories, chapter books, comics, science, space, math, grammar, reading, phonics, geography, history etc from preschool to third grade level. We also have National Geographic kid & highlight subscription. She rarely reads to DD, and she does not force DD to read any books or do any workbooks. Once in a while, DD picks up a book to read or does worksheet whenever she wants. Is it considered a good strategy to promote reading & learning at home by just keep buying books? DD goes to daycare, and she can read & write. She knows to solve some math word problem with addition/Msubtraction and a little bit of multiplication.

I never own that many books in my life, and I cannot justify the reasons behind why DW loves to keep buying books for DD. She says it is freestyle learning, and it is to promote reading & learning. Well, it is true that DD is a curious kid, and she does read a small section of books that DW buys. She is considered a self-motivated learner. Is it considered a waste of money or a good investment for having a small library at home? [/quote]
