I've thought a lot about how my daughter will view poetry, having a dad who loves it and writes it and seeks it out.
Here is a good article about the importance of poetry for kids. My parents introduced poetry to me as a kid, and I loved it from a very young age. I even made some embarrassing attempts at writing poems, starting sometime around 1st grade. SO, it's never too young to start, and this article has some suggestions. I'll be looking for them next time we visit our local library.
