As easy as ABC

Our kids play with a variety of alphabet toys since they were born. From cloth books, magnets to stamps, they started recognizing letters without realizing they were learning.

Getting to know the letters is fundamental to phonetical reading. Immersing the child in the alphabet world is essential. Once they are comfortable with the 26 letters, you can start pointing the letters to them anywhere you go. From signboards to newspaper headlines.

Don't be too anxious to start with tracing letters until the child is ready to sit down on a task willingly. No amount of assessment books can replace the everyday adventure of exploring the environment. Play it out!
