Come join a pretty great discussion, here on the Facebook Page, for some wonderful methods and ideas on teaching your kids to read. There are some really great comments coming in, and we’d love to hear any of your ideas, too.
We also like the window crayons. Then you can write on windows and mirrors. We write notes, lists, puzzles, even little math problems. Then it is a fun game to look for the new hidden letter/word/number each morning left by the learning fairy.
I love this idea! I’m going to try it out with my little guy. Off to check out the other ideas on the fb page!
Check out the book “Reading Magic” by Mem Fox. Her website is here http://www.memfox.com/welcome.html

Wow, these are some great ideas! I just posted a similar activity on my blog about using cardboard letter beads. http://thecardboardcollective.com/2011/11/08/alpha-beads-learning-to-read-in-english-or-japanese/
I think your kids would really enjoy it!
