[quote=Anonymous]Hiring a tutor for a child four months shy of starting kindergarten to "pick up some reading skills" is developmentally inappropriate. Take him to the library once or twice a week and to story time, read to him each day (if he runs away, read to him while he's playing in the bath so he's 'stuck'), and when he interrupts you when you're reading say "Just a minute, I'm reading" and then look up when you've finished the sentence or paragraph. If you have a pet, ask him to "read" his books to the pet - tell them the story based on the pictures on each page. [/quote]
