Teaching children the first steps of reading and spelling. It's simple and fun!
Our Little Learners Love Literacy® resources support children during their first steps in reading and spelling, and provide books and games which are practical and lively for teachers and parents to use with their children.
All our publications are developed by teachers from evidence-based research focusing on explicit teaching with multi-sensory activities and student engagement.
Becoming aware of the link between sounds and letters is the first step in learning to read. Milo’s Birthday Surprise is a fun and simple way to do this at home, kindergarten, Early Learning Centre or Primary School.
