Kids' Language Ability

gifthoney

I think the language learning ability of kids is really powerful.  My daughter is nearly 3 years old.  Her mother tongue is cantonese, so her cantonese is just like an adult.  She can also communicate in simple English sentences.  I think it is normal.

But I am surprised at her reading skill.  I bought a set of readers with CD and DVD to her some months ago.  There are totally more than 10 books, and she has many other things to play.  So I guess she listens to each book for not more than 10 times.  Yesterday I suddenly found that she could open the book, point to the sentences one by one and read the whole book to me!  There are totally 10 pages and 20 sentences in different sentence structure!

Kids are really astonishing!

Dear littlepa, mickybaby, starmami, jacqulau, mypang,

I have already pm to you.  Please check.

By the way, I think I should clarify that there are more than 10 books in the set (each book with around 10 pages), and my daughter is NOT able to read them ALL.  I just choose one that looks easier and interesting for her and she can read it.  I have not tried all of these.

Dear michellebaby, speedbox and ottomum,

I have already pm to you.

Wish to clarify that it actually very depends on whether your kids are interested.  (I don't aim to "promote" the book set actually.  I believe other book sets by other publishers may also have same effect.)

Yes, kids can learn languages very fast starting from very early stage.  How old is your daughter now?  Which school is she studying?
