Little readers

We all know the typical milestones for a baby – crawling, walking, talking… but what about reading? According to early learning expert Dr. Robert C. Titzer, babies as young as nine months old are capable of reading simple words.

His program, called ‘Your Baby Can Read’ has launched in the UK and consists of a kit containing five DVDs along with five corresponding lift-a-flap books. Also included are lots of different word cards and a program overview by Dr. Titzer himself, along with glowing parent testimonials.

Available from Your Baby Can, the kit is priced around £125 and aims to take advantage of the well-researched fact that the younger children learn language skills, the more success they are likely to have. The inclusion of fun elements like game cards and sliding word-cards, along with the DVDs, aims to make the process of learning to read great fun.
