[quote=Anonymous]I have a 3 year old that started preschool this fall. We do not, and have no plans to, do any sort of formal academic supplementing for the foreseeable future. I will consider teaching to read if there is interest before K. That’s not to say we don’t support our child’s learning at home. So much natural play lends itself to teaching moments. Numbers, counting, letters, art supplies, play doh and kinetic sand (builds hand strength for writing), puzzles, easy board games, etc. etc.We read a ton, started easy chapter books and classic books with more difficult vocabulary. Limit screen time to educational shows or nature documentaries. Learning apps on the iPad. Go hiking, to museums, the zoo or aquarium. Kids this age are just constantly soaking everything up.
