today's professional pro bono gift:
don't push or expect a pre-k kid to read. some kids are naturally inclined to pick up reading early if so, let them go at their own speed but little to no instruction.
social interaction with kids who are different or in groups of kids is far more developmentally appropriate. basic math activities such as skip counting, sorting activities same/different, and phonological awareness activities are the building blocks of reading and are far more valuable to the pre-reader.
But do as your Clan dictates, as you surely will, but remember I have made a good living for 23 years from parents who push early reading.
