Tappy Alphabet App Review
This business appears to have disappeared. BUMMER!! I love finding apps that are FUN but actually TEACH kids!! Tappy Alphabet App is one of those!! First, if an app doesn’t keep Alice entertained she won’t use it. No matter how much I try. Tappy Alphabet not only keeps her 100% entertained, engaged but SHE is LEARNING at the same time!!Even more impressive? Alice PICKS Tappy Alphabet to play with FIRST out of a LOT of different apps she has available on my iPad. THAT is truly impressive to me. This is a simple app that teaches not only the alphabet but over 100 different vocabulary words!! The colorful graphics on the screen are the letters A to Z. Kids can choose between capital letters and lowercase letters. I love this! Alice is learning the different look to capital letters verses lower case. Each letter can be touched multiple times with different results! Alice is learning four different words to go with each letter. LOVE that!! When the letter is touched a very pleasant voice says the letter, then says the word associated with the letter! Alice loves this app! The voice that says the letter and says what the word associated with…
Children Learning Reading Program – Teaching Children to Read!
Children Learning Reading Program creators Jim and Elena are parents to three children. They have taught two of their children (their third child is still a baby) to read. Little children!! Jim researched a lot of information on teaching children how to read and put all this information together in a reading program so we can teach OUR toddlers and kids to read before the age of THREE??? Yup!! three!! My regular followers know I babysit my 2-year-old Granddaughter Alice. While we spend time every day with a learning activity. Each lesson is short. Jim and Elena recommend spending only 10 to 15 minutes a day with the lessons. PERFECT!!! Alice doesn’t lose interest and doesn’t dread having her ‘school time’ I want Alice to be excited to learn!! After all her little mind is like a sponge!! At 2 she is anxious to learn!! This program is designed to properly teach phonemic awareness. “Teaching phonics and phonemic awareness produces better reading results than whole language programs. Teaching phonemic awareness improves a child’s reading, reading comprehension, and spelling abilities.” Children Learning Reading Children Learning Reading is a super simple and effective, step-by-step program that helps parents teach their children how…
Alphabet Flash Cards from Educational Toy Planet
I spend my days with my two year old Granddaughter Alice. We have lots of play time, but, I make sure we have learning time too. I’m always on the lookout for educational items that keep Alice interested!! These Alphabet Flash Cards from Educational Toy Planet fits the bill!! The cards are large and easy to hold for Alice. Each card has a bright colorful item on one side that corresponds to the letter on the other side. A for Apple and so on. The deck has 52 cards. Upper and lower case letters. We use the Alphabet Cards in several ways. *Letter side up I ask Alice to match the upper and lower case letters. *With the picture side up, I ask Alice to name the item. For instance Apple, I’ll ask her “What does Apple start with?” *Next I ask Alice to match the picture with the letter it starts with. So many possibilities! These could be used so many different ways! The deck comes with a parent card that offers game instructions. Alphabet Flash Cards are thick card stock with rounded corners! No sharp corners for Alice! Involve your child in the joy of learning the ABC.…

I’m so excited about today’s review! My regular followers know that I babysit 2 year old Alice during the week. We play A LOT… but I also make sure we practice our colors, our letters, numbers and so on. She’s really smart!! So I want to keep challenging her. THANK YOU Barker Creek for helping me do just that!!!

First, the Kid Board is the coolest shade of red! It’s the perfect size too! Alice can set the Kid Board on her lap or it fits in the highchair tray. The Kids Board is deep enough that all the High Frequency Words fit inside AND they don’t come tumbling down on NaNa’s head when it’s time for school. I have to share this video.
