My 5-year-old realized for the first time today that she can read some of the books on our bookshelf, what she calls “real” books. She was so excited and she had to read to everyone in the house. This realization has changed the way she looks at anything with words on it. It’s an exciting time!
It certainly is! The magic of teaching a little one to read and being a part of the experience as they ‘get it’ and everything starts to click . . . my oldest learned to read a while ago and I can’t wait to experience this with my youngest. Great job!
