Give Your Preschooler a Jump Start that Lasts!


My children weren't the first at talking but the skills I gave them made them early and successful readers. They have been at the top of their class because of skills they received early as 3 and 4 year olds. Any parent or caregiver can give this jump start. It's easy and creates memories. Studies show that being a successful reader helps a child be successful in all subjects. The pay off is incredible.

"E"gg hunt on letter "Ee" day


I taught my Alphabetology program locally for a few years in the Poway and Escondido areas before heading back to teach full time as a science teacher. Alphabetology is SO easy. You choose a letter to focus on do activities. For "D," we had a "D"onut "D"ate and took some to "D"ad. We took our letter "Dd" card with us and focused on the sound "Dd" makes. We found the letter D and d on our adventure. Simple, easy, fun and what dad doesn't like a surprise.

For "Ee," we made "E"ggs for breakfast, decorated "E"nvelopes and took the "E"scalator at the mall with our letter"Ee" card.


Each letter comes with a two page spread of ideas. Choose ideas that fit into your day. You don't have to do it every day. We did letter days a couple of times a week. It is a grab and go program that is fun and easy. I love the memories we made. Each letter also has a hand movement called the Kinesthetic Connection. This helps include all of the learning styles and senses.

The program also teaches you how to simple assess your child's progress so you can see what letters you need to focus on. View on Teacher's Pay Teachers.
