Got a kid who's learning to read? Looking for a new board game to add to the bunch? With a little help from your child, you can make a game of your own!

While you are waiting for the real stuff, this activity lets your child play in pretend "snow" while practicing reading skills and learning about magnets.

Once readers know the individual sounds letters make, they need to learn how to blend them and how to break them apart. This activity will help them practice.

It's springtime! Time to get outside and dig! Once seeds go into the ground, invite your child to mark the spot in style.

As your child plays photographer, snapping pictures around the yard, he'll also be practicing recognizing letter sounds, which will help him learn to read.

Is your child learning to "sound it out"? This game will help him stretch his "decoding" skills so when he runs into new words, he's ready to take them on.
