So glad you all enjoyed it. I actually wrote this for The Old Schoolhouse Magazine years ago. Or a version of it anyway.

JoJo these are great tips on how to keep a child engaged and learn communication from an early age. Since you shared these tips with me, I would like to share a few more I learned along the way on how to teach my kids to read, what worked and what didn’t. :)
When I first taught my children to read, I used a method of phonics, but quickly realized this worked for my eldest but not my youngest. She didn’t grasp reading. So after trial and error I began to realize she was a visual learner who needed both elements to learn to read. She only became successful in learning after the sound and visual were combined. And now she is reading at a higher grade level than her fellow students.
I have seen a huge improvement, and suggest for anyone whose kid is struggling with reading to try using both sound and visual to help their kid overcome it too.

Oh thank you David. I never had to teach my kids to read. My dd learned in private school and simply excelled reading on a college level by the time she was in 3rd or 4th grade. My son taught himself to read at the age of 3 using the computer and the DVD subtitles! lol I do know so many who have had issues trying to teach their kids to read and I am sure this will help them. Thanks for sharing. Reading is a big part of communication!!
