What is "Your Baby Can Read"?

How Your Baby Can Read Works

The Your Baby Can Read program is easy to use, and most of all...fun! Basically, we use an interactive and multi-sensory approach. When using the Your Baby Can Read system, children are allowed to see the words at the same time that they hear the words. Since children learn language faster and easier during infancy than any other time, we take advantage of this natural window of opportunity to teach the written language as well as spoken language.

Additionally, we encourage babies to participate by saying the words and by doing physical actions that help them learn the meanings of the words. In addition, Dr. Titzer suggests that the child do some physical activity related to the words. So the program encourages babies and toddlers to clap, wave, sing, point to body parts, and so on.

This kind of interactive, multi-sensory learning has been shown to be superior. It's proven to greatly affect how babies learn and it's simply more fun! This entire program can easily be done in less time than the average child spends watching TV. We highly recommend limiting other TV viewing until your child learns to read.

When can I start the program for my child?

A baby's brain is a sponge for knowledge, thriving on stimulation and develops at a phenomenal pace: nearly 90% during the first five years of life!

The easiest time to learn a language is during the infant and toddler years, when the brain is creating thousands of synapses every second – allowing a child to learn both the written word and spoken word simultaneously, and with great ease.

The best time to begin is just a few days after the baby develops visual tracking. About half of babies have visual tracking at two months of age, and around 90% of babies have visual tracking at three months of age. Since there is more neuroplasticity (the ability of the brain to change or modify based on the environment) early in life, it is possible the brain will develop more efficiently for reading, so the child could read as naturally as the child understands spoken language.
