I began teaching J and Z before they started any formal schooling, because they were ready for it. I began by buying them some early reading workbooks - you can get them at any supermarket. They match beginning sounds with pictures etc. It all just stemmed from there. They really enjoyed sitting with me doing the books as well. When Z became interested in reading, i made a book with photos of her in it, and typed up a story with simple words that she could sound out. Have to get the girls from school, but i'll catch up with you soon
