How to teach reading quickly and easily to kids - even toddlers!
Jim Yang's Children Learning Reading Program had my toddlers reading at 3 years old by just using 5 minutes, 3 times a day of my time!
Here are the mini lessons or learning activities that I did with my toddlers at home: some I created myself, some are learning programs I bought, and others have information about the resources I used. I'm sure there are many different ways to teach each of these concepts, these are just what worked for my kids. There are some mini lessons / activities that take between 5-10 minutes, as well as some where a task can't be repeated within 5 minutes, but all of the mini lessons and activities I created are inspired by core concept of helping a toddler repeatedly practice small parts of a skill in about 5 minutes, with the aim to teach toddlers something each day or help them practice something each day without sacrificing their play time. You can find a activities and mini lessons in the Full Content List.
