[quote=Anonymous]PP..you are not correct about that. My just turned 3 year old read (simple) books to her preschool class with nothing more than a good supply of books to choose from at home. Her older sib was not yet reading and we had no expectations that she would pick it up. She loved to make chains of rhymes as around 2 and then she connected that understanding to the sounds the letters make. All the sudden she was reading "The Fat Cat Sat on the Mat" , "Hop on Pop" and on and on. She was just very intuitive about combining the sounds and figuring out the words. She also has an excellant memory for words. Read it once and new it forever..how to spell it too. Child #1 did not have these skills and really needed to be taught reading. Every kid is different.
