How To Teach a 3 Year Old to Read

[@AwkwardWhispers]

I used this today with my class of three year olds. It was very effective. Some kids did it for five minutes, some for two minutes, but they all did it.

[@L33W41K41]

This is definitely how a child learns! We play learn. He has so much fun and remembers what he learns

[@Starwenhealth]

You are amazing! On my journey to homeschooling, I began to feel burned out. Trouble getting started out of fear that I’m not good enough. I got in my head. Thank you for your kindness, encouragement and positivity. I’m pumped for the week ahead after watching this. A little goes a long way. Who needs school tables anyway?? ❤

[@chappahx]

We're right there with you with homeschooling.

[@benclarin50]

Great energy, great body language, great proximity. All of this creates such an engaging response from the child. Well done! Let me just pin this for future rewatching. 😊

[@Nurseslectureroom112]

Will implement these on my 2 year old. Getting her to focus is my main problem

[@susans3411]

So important for us to limit our talk and be very specific in our directions. One tip: say what you mean, mean what you say. Keep your word. She said he could have the engine if he did X. He did X, but she kept him using the puppy. Don't do that! He knew she didn't keep her promise, and it bugged him, but he let it go. He learned a valuable lesson about mom today, but it wasn't what she intended. 😮

[@thereshampusson4642]

I am so thankful for how you express everything I have tried to tell my husband. I will so have him look at your videos😊

[@Somedumbdudeontheinternet]

The adults getting mad about the idea of limiting children’s screen time are the people that spend hours and hours on their phones themselves

[@AkaedatheLogtoad]

If they were teaching their kids then neither can be on a screen. Problem solved. Lol

[@Somedumbdudeontheinternet]

@@AkaedatheLogtoad yes me an and my wife are expecting our first child, but we’ve implemented no phone rules years ago. Like no phones at dinner or when we are doing an activity together.

[@VanettaMosetta]

​@Somedumbdudeontheinternet congratulations! There are many things i said i was going to do (or not do) when i had kids. But when reality hits, it's more difficult than i anticipated. I wish you the best!

[@Somedumbdudeontheinternet]

@@VanettaMosetta everything is more difficult then anticipated, that’s life. But countless generations grew up without a screen to get them through the time between ordering food and when it gets there at a restaurant.

[@Renewed85]

Your shorts popped up on my KZbin. This is the first full video I watched. Very good

[@tammycorton6873]

Mine also!

[@judithperez9212]

You’re amazingly talented and I’m so loving it 🥰 I love that toddlers can learn to read as they play. Thanks for sharing, God bless you. From Belize 🇧🇿

[@TVOE_12]

I’m learning soo much ❤ Thank you Spencer!!!

[@little_tulip2352]

Fabulous work. I'm gonna try it, too. Bring More of these

[@mslove8532]

THANK YOU...THANK YOU....THANK YOU for this information!

[@bladefox5082]

I’m not close to the age where I’ll have children but this is so adorable 🥺

[@kavoadakunimata20]

Thank you for sharing, I've picked up alot 😊 that I can try with my toddler

[@dmg912008]

Thank you for all the tips!!

[@bingowings113]

I will use parts of this..l won't use the 'oh no something bad has happened'... I liked your energy and the physicality.

[@joelbass8552]

Woooow this is so so good... Thank you for sharing..

[@xbriannaxbananax]

Witnessing this was fascinating

[@jaemeymatherly7598]

Your an inspiration to me. I'm an occupational therapist but if I could train under you for a week I would fly out.

[@neilofarniazi447]

Very useful information to know and share Thanks

[@alefiyamurtaza4206]

Hello!..Amazing video!...just curious to know how long does a toddler learn how to read?

[@Kweenkisses]

Hi, I love your videos… my son is 4 how long should learning time be? I do 30 mins during the day & 15 mins before bed

[@fadinglifelinewithalisha3645]

Just give breaks

[@chulasexychica11]

Every child is different my first loved learning and did 30 min 3 times a day (at 2 yr old) and my second daughter( @2 yr old)started with 5 min 3 times a day and more active games that required doing something, she eventually gradually did 30 min like her sister, adding 5 min each time i saw she was keeping attention up. Best way to know is by trial and error. Hope this help.

[@AleaseCherry]

I am impressed at how Trip understands your super fast talking. I don't think as adults we realize what happens to the brain when you listen to and understand fast talkers. It's literally causing the brain to think fast as we try to interpret what's next. I am impressed to see Trip do that. Furthermore, my son is a 2.5 yrs premie born at 25wks. He knows his alphabets in English and Russian. He taught himself BTW. He can count to 20 and know 10 shapes and 15 colors. But yet he is not speaking in sentences . Instead of saying : I want my cup ..etc. He will just say cup. It's I stuck instead of I'm stuck or Its stuck. Will these steps assist us with this?

[@SuperMrgentleman]

Idk if he's not verbal it's probably tough to establish literacy. Maybe read to him more and try and encourage and stretch sentences when he does speak a little?

[@AleaseCherry]

@SuperMrgentleman Funny I read this today. Thank you. I went out and purchased more books. I read to him at night before bed, his dad and I work a lot. You know ,I'm going to try that. He starts speech therapy tomorrow,l. We spoke with the sitter. He will have 3xs reading time. See how that work out. Thank you.

[@SuperMrgentleman]

@@AleaseCherry Yeah I'd aim for an hour a day depending on if he can stay engaged

[@AleaseCherry]

@@SuperMrgentleman thank you very much. Seriously

[@SuperMrgentleman]

@@AleaseCherry glad to help

[@Stephanie-py7st]

I loved that ♥ You are amazing with kids... I learned so much just from that 1 interaction/example you showed here ;) Thanks!!

[@ghenetweldegiorgis4532]

Thank you for your videos it is powerful and motivated ❤ How I can reach you personally if you have any courses I need some help Thank you 🙏

[@UmarAlayubi]

I dont understand why there's music in the background, it's takes away from what's happening in the video. Not every video needs background music.

[@indexlibrorumprohibitorum8426]

Great job! I Wanted to ask what can we answer to those who say it can harm the kid? I am teaching my toddlers how to read amd some people had told me it is not a good idea... thanks!

[@mysta4478]

That's weird.. there is no harm in teaching a toddler to read. Maybe jealousy..Them not wanting you to have a clever toddler??

[@walqqr1]

There is no harm in spending quality time with your kid and positively teaching them how to read. Those people are either jealous or deranged, don't listen to them. Btw my notifications are off so I won't read replies, y'all.

[@oblogdafotografa]

That is so cool

[@oblogdafotografa]

Can u teach how to do this in a classroom with 20 kids?

[@arrkbats]

Bro your fire

[@gabrielapedroso916]

I want to have a child just so I can see this happen. Me and my husband will have a great chat about it hahaha

[@apikaldominanz]

I am just wondering why children this young should already learn to read. Is this not taught in school or is it more about the teaching overall?

[@toddlerscanread]

They don't HAVE to learn at this age, but there are lots of benefits. Unfortunately, many children don't learn to read in school, or are behind which causes stress and a negative association to reading. It's ultimately up to each family, I'm just here to show the developmentally appropriate way for parents to teach their toddlers at home (if they want to).

[@apikaldominanz]

@@toddlerscanread thanks for your answer. It's quite interesting to hear that. I am living in Germany and here usually reading and writing is a huge part of the education in school. I indeed liked the way you are teaching the children as how you communicate with them is very engaging and fruitful :)

[@oshanedennis3113]

Where are you from

[@mammusaliha6542]

Hi

[@amyelkurdi5378]

I have a younger brother whos 3

[@Usnozulo12]

I was surprised at how little she was giving him confirmation/praise when he got one right, is this intentional, like when you give too much praise maybe it’s infantilising a little bit? Idk I don’t have kids myself, but I thought that it was important to be really clear about when they’ve got something right

[@oshanedennis3113]

I need help

[@ruthrudnik3214]

If you make it into a game, and use flash cards, with letters, you can get the kid to sounding out words in a couple of weeks. 15 minutes a day. This is just too complicated.

[@nehemavaega4340]

😊😮😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

[@micht5358]

You should not have waisted your time explaining that any parent should know screen time is not good for any child.

[@SpecialP5]

at this age kids should focus on socializing and exploring. not learning to read.

[@walqqr1]

Kids can do all of those things: socializing, exploring AND learning. Stop thinking all kids are mentally stunted like yourself. Btw my notifications are off so I won't read replies lol

[@swiftroph]

Go see his video on 3 myths. Spoiler alert, you're wrong and should trust your child more.
