From
personal experience, this is the year some children begin to read on their
own. This is earlier than many children but it could happen in your
home, too! My sons would bring a book to me and ask, "What's this
word?" They have asked me to teach them to read and it has been a
wonderful time. My oldest son read "Hop on Pop" all by himself at
3 years 2 months old. Whether your child is ready to read or not,
reading with your child at this age is a fun experience! Creating
a love of books, that will last a lifetime, is an important goal.
