Your baby can read, can’t say enough about it. I don’t know how but when smart stuff was a baby we watched them together everyday and reading just happened. He has been reading since about age 2 and at six he is reading things like Chronicles of Narnia and the Hobbit. I love it when he sits on his bed and reads his bible. It just blows me away. Spelling happens just as naturally. I know many don’t like the program but I think it’s fantastic.

I’ve taught both my kids with Teach your child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons, by Engelmann. Well worth the time and investment. I’ve recommended it to all my friends with little kids. Both my children were reading at the age of 4. My son has read hundreds of books since then.
