Letters and sounds are the foundation blocks for communication—the pathway to success in school and life.

Make early literacy learning a fun and exciting process, using activities to tune young children's ears, learn about rhymes, connect letters with sounds, and more!

Christine Topfer, an experienced early childhood educator, explains how to use games and activities involving books and familiar objects, to support young children’s developing literacy skills.

  • Tuning young children’s ears to the language of their culture.
  • Learning about rhymes and creating new ones
  • Breaking words into syllables and using alliteration
  • Connecting letters with sounds through play with everyday materials like sand, paint and clay
  • Identifying the different stages of writing and spelling.

Discovering letters and sounds is an invaluable guide to support young learners in becoming confident users of language.
