I do think it needs to be both modeled and practiced, because it's not a natural instinct. Sharing is a good thing, which is why I don’t want Oscar (my first) to be an only child.

My son, who is 19, will tell me that I gave his toy to his sister who is 4 years younger. So no matter what you do, good or bad, it will come back and haunt you.

It's really more about teaching them to take turns than it is about sharing. Even an actual timer can help. They can't grasp the concept of being kind and sharing quite yet.
