There are great benefits in teaching your toddler to learn how to use words and associate the letters with the words. Reading to your toddler can produce many other benefits too such as reinforcing his vocabulary. You should pick a book with a lot of pictures he can look at too.
When did you begin reading to your child? When do you think is a good time to start?
Reading to toddlers assists in future literacy.
Having regular reading sessions with your toddler will build a stronger connection between both of you. Babies and toddlers feel safe and comfortable with regularity. Try letting him sit on your lap if he is very active. A title such as Baby’s First Words would be a good book to start off with for your child.
If you want to give your toddler a social or educational advantage over his peers, a great way to do it is by giving him active exposure to language at an early age.

You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
