THE Twins "read" more than just books. They like to "read" anything they can get their hands on, including mail flyers.
Above buggy "reads" a flyer from a political candidate. Don't worry wannabe governor, she is not old enough to vote against you (yet). EJ reads a flyer from a fitness club.
Reading at their level currently involves skills like holding the material in the correct, upright, direction, paging through the book from front to back, using fingers to identify words and knowing the difference between words and pictures, identifying the beginning of a paragraph, and moving left to right sentence by sentence toward the end of the paragraph. They also utter "words" like Mom and Dad as they move through the text. While they cannot translate the text into words yet, their tone varies in pitch and frequency like Mom and Dad.
