we have lots of books

But the best thing that helped DS to learn his sounds and letter was a puzzle

I found a wood alphabet puzzle and over three months ...DS learned every sound, name for the letter and sounds or words associated like c, car, cake, cookie....etc

He started doing the puzzle by himself with my help
Then he did it by himself
Then he made the sounds by himself
Then associated words

Now he reads two and three words per page.... Small books and of course I don't know if it's memory or reading .....lol

But we are working our way through books with a whole sentence on each page.... Sounding everything out...and he gets it...

He's 2 years and 2 months old now. We start red this about 1 and a half..... Hope that helps
