**NOTE: Remember that children all grow and mature differently and learn at different times. Don’t be alarmed or worried if you child is not yet able to do some of the things mentioned at the exact same time as a friend the same age. With your help and patience, your child will eventually gain these skills. Children should not be pressured or “drilled.” We don’t want to turn them off to learning at such a young age.
