I just don't get it. Not to offend anyone but I would love to see some real scientific research behind this one.

I HATE this commercial. Even though I doubt it's better than having your kids learn to read at school, it always makes me feel like an awful parent for not teaching my kids to read before they can walk. :-p

So far, so good. My son is only 3 1/2 months, but he absolutely loves it! Not sure if he is retaining anything yet, but it seems pretty entertaining.

What's the rush to get your baby to read other than to brag? I read to my son everyday but I dont push him to learn to read- he's just 2!

I don't like the fact that it doesn't seem to work on the building blocks of phonetic reading...If they are reading by sight only, it will come back to haunt them later...
