I remember my dad using that for me when I was in kg/1st. They put me in special ed because I couldn't read as well as the other students, so my dad bought that and sat down with me. In a month I was reading at a 4th-5th grade level. Schools are garbage
Did you read with your parents much before kindergarten?
I was reading novels already at that age, mainly because my mom read books with me a lot, and I just followed what she said and figured it out.
I also liked it and pushed her to read to me all the time.
I learned to type on a computer when I played parser input adventure games, like King's Quest. I'd always call my dad to type for me but he couldn't always get there so I had to learn it.
In both cases though, I spent a lot of time with my parents learning these things.
School..... I think I had good teachers that cared at that age... But... That's not where I learned how to read and write. Maybe writing came a bit more from school I guess.
