An Article and Video about Literacy, Young Children, and How We Can Help From Birth

As I was looking through some articles from the Zero to Three website I found an article “Getting Ready to Read: Helping Your Child Become a Confident Reader and Writer Starting from Birth“  that I thought I would share. This article talks about young children, literacy and how as adults we can help them from day one.

I found another that is a video show “Toddling Towards Reading” that is 30 minutes long and it discusses how children need to know more going into kindergarten.  It starts when they are just babies.  This was informative and fun to watch.
