    Is anyone else doing EPGY with their 3 year old? I was just curious how it was going. We just started a little over a week ago and my DS is about 2/3's of the way through kindergarten. I kind of expected it to take a little longer, especially since he is only 3 1/2. I am guessing he will slow down a little when we get to 1st grade.

    When signing up, there was no option to input an age younger than 5, which I thought was a little odd.

    I believe they are supposed to be in school before starting which is why there is no age less than 5. I will be signing my daughter up in the fall most likely as she's been asking to do EPGY since her brother is doing it. K did not take long at all for him (2 days I think, lol) and then first grade only took 2 weeks or so. After that he started running into things that were new to him so it took a little longer at that point.
    Once you hit new things he will slow down, he may still learn new concepts quickly but it will take longer to fully master them.
