Nail Phonics by Using Your Child's Favorite Characters

Feb 08, 2024

Phonemic awareness is fundamental to a child's early reading success. When children learn to hear and manipulate sounds, they are able to build a stronger foundation for reading comprehension, fluency, and decoding.

That's why it's so important to practice these skills during storytime with your little one. And if you're looking for ways to get kids excited to read, try calling on their favorite characters for backup. These affordable phonics sets, which feature kids' cherished characters, are a great tool to help them master sounds and sight words, so they can start reading on their own.

For instance, take the Peppa Pig Phonics Box Set — with 10 books each focusing on a different vowel sound and two workbooks, this set is a great addition to an at-home preschool curriculum. Growing readers will also delight in the Disney Learning: Toy Story Phonics Box as they practice sounding out words with their favorite characters!
