Then Iâ??m going to get a mirror and write a message to her on paper in the reflection. Then give her the message and tell her that when she has learned to read I will tell her secret to understanding the messageâ?¦ ....

You like that��.I stole it straight out of the Divince Code....

hehe yea at 4 yrs old she may just end up a little scrambled if you started speaking in reverse My youngest is 2 in a few weeks and we dont do it around him or we will never understand him lol.
The older kids are pretty good at it. Even pretty fluid with writing in mirror image.
My oldest boy had a hard time learning to write his letters correctly, they were backwards and misplaced so I came up with that as a way to train him to write properly. It worked amazing and we found it fun too.

I like your idea about the secret language to motivate her to learn to read.
But dont mothers and daughters already have some freaky secret communication going on? Seems that way here I tell ya!
