Magnet letters are harmful? That's just bizarre.
I agree that it's bizarre. What makes a kid 'ready' to read. We taught both of our two older kids to read before K. They are in MS now and still love to read. Not sure what the PP is talking about.

But why can't a kid 'train' to read and then learn the other stuff after?
And who says early reading and early reading comprehension are mutually exclusive? Are there studies that show kids who read early are worse at reading comprehension?

Talk about the pictures in the books.
What do you think will happen next?
This is not a race. This is a building. You want her to understand what she is reading and be excited about it. You want her to learn to read. Lots of these games train the kids to read. There is a difference.
What the difference?
