Reading to and with your child is one of the most valuable things you can do for them. When your child begins to recognise letters and letter blends (sounds like “sh”, “th”, “ee”, “dr” etc), they glow with confidence and the new and exciting world of reading books is opened up for them. We suggest working on just one or two letters a week to begin with and when your child is confidently reading all the letters, try 2 letter blends per week.
