These oversize flash cards are easy to handle due to their large size, making them ideal for teaching babies and young children to read.

Teaching babies to read with flash cards is incredibly easy, fast and effective. Young children learn best in short, quick sessions. These sessions take as little as 20-30 seconds each and you would do that 2 -3 times per day. You can teach your baby to read between 10 – 20 words in a week, or more depending on your child’s level of interest. The amount of time you would be investing is about 1 or 2 minutes per day. That is really all it takes. Continue showing your baby the words until you have completed the whole set.
Why teach babies to read by sight?
Knowing how to read these words allows the child to read more fluidly, without getting tripped up on words. This increases comprehension of what is being read and makes for more confident readers. Sight-reading can lead to an understanding of phonics if it in introduced during the first three years of life. By teaching babies to read with flash cards, they quickly learn the words and commit them to memory so they are never stumbling blocks in their reading.
