Right Start Math for a 2.5 year old?

Early Learning Teaching Your Child Math
1

My daughter is 2.5 years old and is showing quite an interest in numbers and is very bright. Her interest seems to have come about from doing LM, even though we have only been doing this for a few weeks. I have been reading about Right Start and am especially keen for her to do that particular program alongside LM. I know that the first level of this program is aimed at 4-5 year olds but i’m wondering if it may be possible for her to start now while working at a slow but sustained pace? Of course she doesn’t have the same attention span as a 4-5 year old but was thinking that we could break each lesson down in to 5 minute sections and complete say 1-2 lessons a week.

Does anyone else have any experience of starting children around this age on Right Start or do you have any thoughts about whether we may have any success?

I don’t have any personal experience with RS Math but I have heard it’s a great program, I am hoping some others can chime in here on that. However, you are on EXACTLY the right path with your approach! Just about any learning program can be broken up into smaller lessons and modified for a younger audience. 2.5 is a great age to start a hands on math program! I think LM really paved the way to increase my daughter’s aptitude for math and both programs can certainly be done concurrently.

Maybe you should PM Kizudo. I know she was thinking of starting RightStart with her little man who just turned three. She might be able to give you some advice on the topic. That is one math program I have not personally used.
