Editorial Review: Book Description: Easy, Playful Activities That Prepare for Phonics Instruction Phonemic awareness—the understanding that words are made up of sounds—is essential to a child's early reading success. With this book, children gain this awareness through engaging, easy to teach activities. Average Rating:
 Rating: - HomeschoolersThis book has helped me a lot with homeschooling. Unlike other books of prereading activities I have seen, many of the activities in this book can be done with just a parent and child, even around the dinner table (we are a weird family, I know). I have also read Blevins other titles, and I particularly enjoyed Phonics A to Z.

Does not cover some of the most basic activities to develop awareness of speech sounds (e.g. listening, discriminating) and includes an abundance of activities that would be difficult for children at the pre-reading/early reading level. Rating: - A helpful addition to my resource libraryI found this book to be very helpful. It is full of fun learning games that target exactly what I need to be teaching at the begining of first grade. The children enjoy the activities and master the skills. A teacher can't ask for more than that!
