Summary
The development of literacy skills in early childhood plays a very important role. Children's literacy activities can be important predictors of future academic success [1]. Literacy skills help children more to read for children's success at school. The great literacy skills make it easier for children to think in more sophisticated ways. Children who have the ability of literacy from an early age will cause the child to become a learner throughout his life. Learning media provided to support children's literacy skills must have age-appropriate instructions in early literacy skills, such as reading together and sharing writing [3]
