[quote=Anonymous]Read to your child every day and talk to her like she's not a child, so she picks up words that expand her vocabulary. Encourage her to explore the world around her, do field trips to interesting places. (do what 11:51 says.) Work on numbers and counting, addition and subtraction when she's ready. If she's reading at 4, there's a fair chance she's brighter than average or maybe even gifted, and that'll show up in testing later on. (most of the 4-year-olds I know are NOT reading. I know many.) Not every bright kid is "gifted" though, and not every kid needs those programs to thrive, so try not to push too hard.[/quote]
