As a child matures, there are so many distractions that are competing for his or her attention which will interfere with learning to read later. This “sensitive time” of a preschooler, as Maria Montessori so beautifully described it, is the perfect time for his or her learning to read. The internet, video games and social media culture are insidious, influential, time consuming, and not in the best interests of your child’s future. I observe many parents just hook their kids up with a device or a kindle for endless cartoons, games and videos that ultimately teach them that this is what they are to do with their time and their attention. This is a false reality. Screen time has replaced many learning opportunities on many different levels. So please give them this first real spark of success with early reading which can lead to much more educational accomplishment. And let them PLAY with their free time…..indoors…outdoors…running free into their futures…
