A member asked:

Is age 3 a good age to teach a child to learn to read? i tried to teach this child to learn the names of the letters. but she seem not to remember or learn although she knows names of colors and house hold objects.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Be patient: The visual-spatial recognition needed to decode symbolic figures (letters) is not expected in kids before age 4.At that point they are expected to recognize some letters & numbers. By 5 they should recognize & recite them all. If the kid seem to, be encouraging & provide access to the materials but please do not pust the child as if they must to please you.
