We had great success with magnetic letters with our 2 year old (26 months). We started with letter sounds and he picked up the letter names from songs and videos on his own. We live in Japan so we got him a set of magnetic Japanese characters too and after he had mastered A-Z he became obsessed with Japanese sounds and now knows all 46 of them too. He loves looking for alphabets and hiragana when we go out. I love your idea about the wristbands! We're trying to follow his interests rather than drilling him, but he LOVES words and numbers. Your tips are so valuable thank you!

You did an amazing job. I have 3 little ones 4, 3 and 1year old. Definitely gonna use this to help them. Thankyou

I love all your videos!!! Need to watch the potty training video because she is starting to let me know! I started introducing upper case letters first when she was around 13 months and she is 18 months and knows 17 confidently! She can identify them but still learning to show her sounds. The other day in the car I heard her making the “h” sound and sounding out the word house! She was going, “h-h-h-ouse” I was so proud because I didn’t prompt her to say that! We’ve taught her sign language as well and did her first sign at 9 months. I feel that her being exposed to different ways to communicate is why it’s easy for her to learn new things! My mom sometimes speaks to her in Spanish, so we are trying to fill that spongy-brain of hers!!!

I really like that you went through the correct way to model the accurate sound

[staceybronson]

I am a Nanny and I appreciate your knowledge. Your videos are very helpful.

[lefille]

I really appreciate how you pronounced all the letters I will have to play this video again to make sure I’m doing it correctly.

[licel]

I can't thank you enough! My daughter have watched and heard your song before 1 year and today, she is 18 months, and she is still she knows mmuch of the sounds now!

[cxfzxlo]

Wow Christian is reading already?? NICE!!! Im working on it too with my toddler now. It was funny, she was watching the video and saying the letters with you at the same time 😄😄😄 thank you for all your work, it has made a big difference!! 😄🤗😀👍👍

Thank you so much for sharing. I now know that I was introducing my son to way to many alphabets at a time. That might explain his frustration and disengagement.

[kikoful]

I love to learn my kids. that's incredible moment in my live. TKS you are in the Best mommy.

[jessicawarner]

[khaseyflortuquib]

We’re on early intervention but ur vids sound feasible :) and this is my first commenting on a vid. I even log in just to i cn subscribe and comment ❤️

[jmeblare]

I am also a kindergarten teacher and have brought my knowledge to my son. He is doing so well. He went into 3k knowing all his letters and most sounds. Thank you for sharing your tips. I have even learned some new things myself. Haha

[faroozahmad]

First Viewer, Dear keep doing great works .

[hisloveiseternal]

Wish I’ve seen this sooner! But happy that my 23 month old knows a few letters now

[sincerelymonica]

I'm loving this video! Thank you for all the helpful tips! My 3 year old knows letter sounds and can sound out CVC words, but I'm at a lost on how to teach him to actually read. Will you be putting out a video about transitioning from sounding out each letter to reading? Would love to see that!

[annika]

Thankyou for sharing your knowledge! Love all of you videos! Definitely appreciate the pronunciation recommendations! Excited to start working with my son tomorrow!

[katrinaaman]

Okay, but I feel like I learned a ton here myself, haha. Such good tips!

[RavinderKaur-fipy]
