[quote=Anonymous]Mine really taught herself around 3. There was a videos at the time (Leap Frog) that was based on the alphabet. There was a song. I still remember it. The B says Buh, The B says Buh Every letter makes a sound the B says Buh. She also was very good at rhymes. We randomly had the book The Fat Cat Sat on a Mat home from the library. She just put it together and started reading it and slowly expanded. She also had a very good memory so once she learned a word she would remember it. I do not think it was anything we did as her older sister was a late reader. I would only follow the interest of a 3 year old...not push flashcards or workbooks.[/quote]
