Early Reading
Why early reading matters and how to start at age 2
Why is Early Reading Important?
A child's brain is most plastic in the first years of life. Between ages 2 and 5, the primary neural connections form. Early reading doesn't burden the child but stimulates natural development — with the right approach.
- Children can recognize words from 6 months old
- By age 3, the brain forms 700+ neural connections per second
- Early reading correlates with better academic outcomes
- Global reading is play, not study
- 5-minute sessions are ideal for early ages
How to Start at Age 2?
Sign up for CanReadNow, create a child profile, and simply follow the system's recommendations. Start with the simplest words — "mama", "papa", child's name. Practice 5 minutes, 2-3 times a day. Don't test the child — just show the words.
Mia at 3 years 'reads' 50 words in Russian and 30 in Hebrew. For her it's a game. We practice 5 minutes morning and evening — she asks for it herself!
