Reading Rainbow

Butterfly in the sky,

I can go twice as high,

Take a look. Its in a book-

Reading Rainbow.

I can go anywhere.

Friends to know and ways to grow,

Reading Rainbow.

I can be anything.

Take a look. Its in a book-

Reading Rainbow.

Reading Rainbow...

Adelle can now read the words, "cat," "dog," and "hi" every time she sees them without any mistakes. This is a plug for Your Baby Can Read. She's 16 months old. When I asked a 4-year-old to identify the same words, she just said, "I don't know," and that's typical, I'm sure. We recieved the Your Baby Can Read program as a gift from my grandma, but you can do the same thing by making flashcards and reading with your child. I just found out from a MOPS speaker that a mother can increase a child's brain size up to 20% by interacting with them, and that a child's brain is 90% formed by the age of 5. I think Adelle will be passing me up in intelligence by the age of 10, but maybe she will have an easier time in life and school because of the time we're spending teaching her to read now.
