Reading, Reading, Reading

To help Des learn to read, we started him on the BOB books shortly after his 3rd birthday, just like we did with Stella.  He is doing a great job so far and is very enthusiastic and eager to learn how to read.  The main difference between him and Stella is that Des has a much shorter attention span.  He has "ants in the pants" syndrome and can only sit still for a short time before he loses interest and wants to move onto something else.  That's a boy for you!  We don't pressure or force him to read and we let him set the pace.  It's already sinking in though because I see him trying to sound out words he sees on the cereal box at breakfast time.
