Before Phonics
Every crucial skill your child needs to know before starting phonics explained.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"All parents of preschool children need this! I'm shocked at how easy all of the activities are to fit in every day life without any setup or cost. I was a little unsure about what to do, but now I feel more confident in approaching phase 1 phonics!"
Phonics at Home
Interactive, multisensory, low screen time phonics lessons to follow along with your child.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"My little boy is engaged throughout the lessons thanks to the interactive movement games, songs for each sound, and writing opportunities. He even asked to do more lessons as soon as we finished the first one! I get to actually enjoy learning with him, instead of worrying if I'm doing it right."
Sing to Write
Letter formation songs scientifically proven to improve handwriting and stick in your child's brain - no boring tracing activities required!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Ivy loves them. We've been singing them in the car and dancing them out in the kitchen. I caught her today singing them while she was drawing at her table... I'm so grateful I have something I can use that she is enjoying!"

Hi, I’m Del.
Early Literacy Specialist, SENCo, and mum to a small tornado who tests every theory I have 😅
I spent over a decade teaching little ones to read before I had one of my own, and that's when I realised how much is left out of the information and resources online for parents.
Through The Little Reading Nest, I help busy mums weave the right kind of learning into their day, so when there is time for more, it's building on learning that's already happening.
