Hello and thank you for writing to JustAsk,
Preschool children are rarely diagnosed with dyslexia as reading and writing problems are expected at this developmental stage. I often tell parents that Toy R US reverses their R as a homage to young children and they way they read and write. Educators expect reversals with letters, numbers and during reading until around the second grade.
Hope this helps!
