Little Reader Books ~ schedule?

[Mama_KK]

Hi!

My 13 mo and 9 yo (Down's Syndrome) were given the LR software and books this past Christmas.  We've been plugging away at the lessons but have not incorporated the books yet.  I am wondering if there is a particular order and point at which I should be introducing them?  In other words, if BK has put together some kind of schedule to go along with them.  I'm guessing not since they didn't come with one but thought I'd ask just in case.  Oh, and  I looked around on the forum to see if this question had already been asked but only found a video on how to use them, which I've already watched 

Thanks ~ Kendra

Hi Kendra!  I would start reading them with your kids as soon as they are interested.  If they are not, then put them away for awhile and try again later.  Do continue reading with them as much as possible books that they are interested in.  You can also write labeling words on top of pictures in your books or put post-it notes with words on top of pictures.   Both my babies loved to peel off the notes and it was a good way to get them interested in words.  Sometimes they would put the words back on in the wrong spot or throw them on the floor.  Just let them if they do and pick them up later! 

You can also point to the words in the books as you read.  My first did not follow along very much but even still I know it helped him learn words that I hadn't taught him.  My second follows along quite a bit and has learned so much this way. 

Just remember, they can't get too many books too early, so long as they are engaged and enjoying them.  And if they aren't enjoying them find ones they do enjoy!
