The number one question I am asked by readers is about teaching the alphabet to kids. Some of these readers have younger kids (toddlers) and others have older kids (ages 7 or above). In this 4-part Alphabet Series, I explore teaching kids letters and their letter sounds. I talk about the theory and research behind it (don’t skip that part!) as well as some hands-on ways that you can teach it using books, printables, educational toys, and technology.
