Your Baby Can Read Giveaway

| Sun 07-19-09

I’m a great believer in the importance of learning to read. I was fortunate in that my Mom taught me how to read at a very early age. She was a teacher who knew it’s better to teach children to read as young as possible, rather then to let it wait until the child goes to school. She made reading fun, which made me enjoy it. As a teenager when I was supposed to be collecting money from customers on my newspaper route I could be found in quiet areas of the street, sitting on my bike and reading a book. I still love reading to this day.

The folks at Your Baby Can Read also feel the earlier you teach a child to read the better. Read a little about their product and the explanation on why it works. They’re so confident in their product that they’re willing to prove it to one of my readers. Stick around!

Give The Gift of Reading with The New Deluxe Set
From “Your Baby Can Read! ®”

Learn What the Experts Already Know: Teaching Reading When Children Are Most Receptive Enriches Them In School And Life For Years To Come

San Diego, CA—June 16, 2009 – Guiding infants through early literacy skills is a natural, stimulating activity that strengthens the parent-child bond and encourages a life-long love of reading. Now parents can develop this exciting time in a child’s life to the fullest with the Deluxe Edition of the “Your Baby Can Read!” Program, offering a multi-sensory approach to early reading skills with a complete set of interrelated books, cards, activities and music, all of which work together to open up a new world of communication for even the youngest children.

The remarkable “Your Baby Can Read!” infant literacy program has been used by hundreds of thousands of babies around the world and changed the way many people view the needs and abilities of even the youngest children. This scientifically-based program builds on the fundamental principle that reading is a natural extension of a young child’s acquisition of spoken language, and that waiting until the age of five or six to learn to read misses a key developmental window in a baby’s life. The complex language-learning process happens at a specific time in a baby’s brain development, when even the youngest baby can easily absorb the visual aspects of language. Introducing basic reading at this critical time makes the whole process easier, more exciting and more interesting for the child. The amazing success of the “Your Baby Can Read!” program has literacy experts and early childhood educators worldwide changing the way they think about reading in young children.

There could be no better gift than the gift of reading, and the lifelong advantages that come with being confident and comfortable with those skills from an early age. The “Your Baby Can Read!” Deluxe Edition offers a comprehensive system of easy-to-use, interactive DVD’s, double-sided interactive sliding word and picture cards, lift-the-flap books, a helpful parents’ guide, a music CD and more. This multi-sensory approach, aimed at children from birth to 5 years, allows parents to get the most out of the “Your Baby Can Read!” program.

Used together or individually, each component of the Deluxe Edition offers a fresh and enjoyable activity. Children using the program eagerly learn new words and begin to associate reading with the warmth and excitement of playing with a loving parent or caregiver. Babies and toddlers also find comfort and stimulation in seeing child-friendly, colorful photographs and words that draw from familiar objects around the home—a hallmark of the “Your Baby Can Read!” program.

“Your Baby Can Read!” was developed by Dr. Robert Titzer, a prominent professor and infant researcher, after noticing the positive impact of early reading in his own infant children. A professor and teacher for over 15 years, Dr. Titzer has extensively researched early childhood learning and development, and his findings have been published in such prestigious journals as Psychological Review. His efforts to promote reading from birth to toddler years, at the same time children are learning the spoken word, has captured the interest of educators, researchers, parents, government agencies and the media worldwide.

    I am not a mom who tweets or twitters. But I do read to my child a lot and we do educational things daily. I am trying to figure out how to stimulate my son more, as he is very smart. So I have done research on “your baby can read” and it sounds like my son could really benefit from it!!

    I learned from the site that it is educational and fun for the child. And it also helps them to learn and recognize words and letters. It stimulates their brains in ways that other learning at this age does not.

    We would love to win this!! Good luck to you all!!

    This program increases communication skills, thus having the potential to aide those children who are not yet talking or even those who are speech delayed or have other exceptionalities to better communicate with others thus decreasing frustration levels and increasing confidence.

    We have a 2.5 year old with a speech delay, and a 16 month old and would love to introduce this program to them both, especially before the prime window of opportunity, up to age four, is closed for my elder son. We really appreciate your offering all of us this opportunity to win what appears to be such a powerful program for young minds, as we, like many others these days are experiencing great financial difficulties.

    Thank you so much for your generosity! Our first son really needs this opportunity!

    Learning is such a great gift to give to your child and this program will give them a head start where they are more open to learning. I want to have my baby learn from an early age and this will help her more when she enrolls in school.

    I had no idea that the window of opportunity for language starts to close at age 4! So the fact that this is made for kids while still in that window is one benefit that I learned it had!!

    The most interesting thing that I learned on teh Teach Your Baby To Read website is that kids learn languages most easily during the infant and toddler years. My son is having a hard time learning to talk but he loves to say his letters.

    Amanda says:

    I think the biggest benefit of the program, in my opinion, is that it provides more than one way for the children to learn words. They not only see and hear the word but they also see it in action. By showing a baby clapping after seeing and hearing the word clap the kids are able to put it into context with their world. Great program, I would love to introduce my 21 month old to it. Thank you for providing this giveaway.

    Elizabeth says:

    Learned that the natural window of opportunity of learning is around 4 years of age and not 5 or 6 when they are in kindergarten.

    Rebecca says:

    Some of the benefits of the program are giving your child the tools early in life for effective communication, increased learning capacity and increased confidence.

    A big benefit of the program is that the baby sees, hears and sees the meaning of the words.

    Brooke says:

    Well besides the fact that it makes it fun… One of the benefits of the Your Baby Can Read system is that it targets children aged 3 months to 5 years which is the period of time when the brain is most receptive to learning language…

  32. 69
    Sara says:

    One benefit is that a child’s brain develops very quickly to 5 years and they should be being taught a lot between this time.

    Kate Mullin says:

    After the age of four the window of opportunity for your child to learn multiple languages begins to close. That is why it is important to begin teaching reading at the youngest age possible, made easy by Your Baby Can Read. Love this blog!!

    Cindy says:

    Teaching your child to read early helps them stay ahead for the rest of their lives.

    ariel says:

    The people above already pointed out most of the benefits to this program. Another one that I found was it can be a great bonding experience for babies and parents. I agree with the concept that it is easier to learn language skills at a high level in the first few years of life.

    From a more personal point of view, I have always been a slow reader and because of this I could not achieve my goal in life to become a lawyer. My reading test scores were always low. I do not want my daughter to have the same problem. I do not want her to cut short her dreams. It is not that I stopped trying or did not read enough. I was always a hardworker and got great grades. Back to reply to your question of benefit of the dvds/system: I hope to use the system to help my daughter gain confidence in reading and evolve a love for reading. By reading more at an early age, hopefully, in future she would not as much problems with such tests.

    This is my first time visiting your site so I am not sure I understand Bonus entries and I hope I qualify for a copy.

    Thanks much. Regards,
